My guest today is my new friend Mathias Johansson, Chief Product Officer and Co-founder of the Swedish company Dirac.
Mathias has a Master of Science and a Ph.D. in Signal Processing from Uppsala University. And, it was at Uppsala University 20 years ago that Dirac was founded by Mathias and fellow PhD’s students with the vision to revolutionize the way we hear sound. Sound and signal processing is at the heart of Dirac’s journey.
Today, the company delivers optimized sound for mobiles, VR, AR, auto-motives, residential and commercial environments. Mathias is deeply passionate about building great products and any advanced technology that can lead to a real change makes him tick. His current role is to define and plan new products.
He and his team are making bad audio sound better with a software technology that can upgrade any sound system without expensive hardware upgrades. They are offering better, cleaner and louder sound to the many people! Dirac is “the sound pioneer” and “the complete supplier of solutions for digital audio signal processing.”
In this episode, Mathias and I are discussing VR for Our Ears: Dynamic 3D Binaural Audio – Optimizing future sound systems to offer the ultimate sound experience.
This episode has been binaural recorded, so to experience the 3D Sound Listening Experience, put on your headphones.
