An environment-aware audio system designed to redefine the user-space relationship. Tangerine utilizes a fusion of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and micro-geodesy to achieve hyper-local positioning. This sensor array allows for the creation of adaptive sound zones. Users can toggle between exclusive (Attract) and inclusive (Surround) output modes, effectively modulating the social permeability of the listening environment.
The device is currently categorized as an advanced research exploration.
App — It serves as a dynamic control surface for the acoustic field. It grants the user precise agency to steer sound directionality and relocate the acoustic epicenter in real-time, effectively allowing them to "sculpt" the room's listening sweet spot.
Form & CMF — The fundamental form is a precision-machined cylinder that splits into four identical, independent halves. The body is characterized by a rigorous, full-surface perforated grille pattern that provides acoustic transparency while defining the object's visual texture.
