The Works Research Institute
In collaboration with The Works and Bloomline Acoustics, 4DSOUND developed the audio technology for The Sphere - a fully spherical loudspeaker for one person to sit within.
The Sphere is a precision acoustical instrument for experiential sound research. In the Sphere, soundwaves are projected on the user within the audible frequency range as well as extending above and below – sound that cannot be heard but can be felt. Involving stimuli and feedback response, the Sphere observes how the soundfield influences the focus and state of the listener and tunes more precisely to induce a state of balance.
The Sphere has been subject to three years of R&D to establish the optimal acoustical conditions to experience and observe the enhanced effects of sound on human beings, especially for benefiting health.
