NEW YORK, November 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Woojer - Feel the Sound - Recently launched Kickstarter Campaign has already surpassed 60% of its funding goal ($100K)
"Woojer" is a matchbox-sized, silent wearable "woofer" which enables users to actually "Feel the Sound". The tactile sensation delivered by the patent-pending polyphonic transducer enhances any multimedia experience and has the potential to become a "game changer" in the audio and game industries. Clipped to the clothing along acoustic meridian bodylines the augmented reality haptic physical sensation convinces the brain that the whole body is exposed to high acoustic energy by the principle of "Perceptual Inference" (Auto-Completion). Woojer is compact, mobile, low cost and energy efficient.
"At present, personal audio experiences are based solely on hearing. As a consequence, virtually all the rich low frequency sensation is lost. Woojer captures all the lost low frequency sensation and literally allows you to feel the sound. It's like having your own portable movie theater, or being at a rock concert. Imagine the implications for video gaming and other multimedia experiences. The experience is so engaging, and so totally immersive, users tend to lower the audio levels, thus making it safer for your hearing," said Mor Efrati, the inventor of Woojer.
