Tried out the Tiniest and Lightest Micro-Sized Loudspeaker on the Planet
xMEMS, a leading technology company, has announced the launch of its newest innovation - the Sycamore micro speaker. This near-field full-range MEMS Micro Speaker is set to revolutionise the audio industry with its compact size, impressive sound quality, and versatile applications.
Measuring just 8.41 x 9 x 1.13 and weighing a mere 150 milligrams, the Sycamore speaker is one-seventh the size and one-third the thickness of traditional speakers. This miniature marvel takes up 70% less volume and weighs 70% less than a traditional dynamic driver.
Despite its small stature, the Sycamore speaker packs a punch when it comes to performance. It maintains its crispness and strength regardless of the volume at which it is played. The bass in the Sycamore speaker never sounds muddy, and the treble doesn't overstep into sounding shrill. Sycamore offers a warm and clear sound quality, with a noticeable punchy low-end.
The Sycamore's size allows for the design of sleeker, fashion-forward products in devices like smartwatches and glasses. Its small size and light weight make it suitable for use in various devices, including AR glasses, VR headsets, smartphones, car headrests, smartwatches, and earpieces for clearer calls. The use of Sycamore in devices like smartwatches and AR glasses could potentially make them lighter and more compact.
Moreover, Sycamore's small size and light weight make it a suitable micro-sized tweeter for car headrests. The speaker, despite its small size, is capable of producing high volumes. In fact, when integrated into a smartwatch, it could easily fill a room with sound.
The Sycamore speaker is rated IP58 for water resistance, ensuring it can withstand the elements. xMEMS' speaker technology aims to replace traditional coil speakers in earbuds, headphones, and hearing aids, offering advantages such as a more detailed sound profile, deeper low-end, and increased robustness.
Sycamore has already made its mark in the world of technology. It was first used in the Sycamore quantum processor, which achieved quantum supremacy in 2019. While there is no information about a future event when Sycamore will be used for the first time, its initial significant use happened in 2019.
Sycamore will begin testing in the first quarter of 2025, with mass production most likely starting in October 2025. This tiny powerhouse is set to reshape the audio landscape, offering improved sound quality and paving the way for sleeker, more compact devices. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new technology!
