Nokia OZO Audio Technology and Business Advancements

Nokia OZO Audio Technology is a game-changer in the world of virtual and augmented reality.

The technology uses 9 microphones to capture 360-degree audio, allowing users to pinpoint the source of sounds with incredible accuracy.

This innovation has been a huge success, with many companies adopting it for their VR and AR products.

One of the key benefits of Nokia OZO Audio Technology is its ability to create a truly immersive experience, making users feel like they're right in the middle of the action.

Nokia OZO Audio Technology is a market-leading technology that enables users to capture spatial sound with vibrant accuracy and precision. It's designed and licensed specifically for smartphones and cameras.

OZO Audio features three innovative technologies: Audio 3D, Audio Zoom, and Audio Windscreen. These technologies work together to capture true-to-life audio in the highest quality in videos.

Audio 3D enables users to capture natural, spatial sound recordings. This means that users can experience sound in a way that's similar to how we experience it in real life.

Audio Windscreen dramatically reduces wind distortion in the audio, making it perfect for capturing sound in windy weather conditions. This is especially useful for outdoor enthusiasts and videographers.

Audio Zoom is linked to the visual zoom of the smartphone's camera, allowing users to dynamically identify and amplify sounds to correspond with zoomed and magnified video. This feature is a game-changer for videographers and content creators.

Nokia's OZO Audio technology is licensed to several leading smartphone manufacturers, including OnePlus and Oppo. This means that users can experience high-quality spatial sound on a wide range of devices.

Nokia's Technology Licensing business is focused on licensing Nokia intellectual property, including patents, technologies, and the Nokia brand.
