Until now, the only way for a person to listen to music, facetime, or play video games without disturbing people nearby was to use headphones, wired or wireless. Now Israeli startup Noveto has made the need for earphones a thing of the past with its SoundBeamer 1.0, a desktop device that beams pockets of sound and music to the listener's ears alone.

The SoundBeamer, unveiled Friday, dynamically moves the source of the sound around the listener in 3D without disturbing people nearby – no speakers or headphones needed.
The device can be connected to any computer, tablet, or smartphone and can be used for video conferencing, listening to podcasts, playing video games, and workouts.
SoundBeamer was developed with the backing of Noveto's engineering partner, consumer electronics giant Foxconn.
Noveto also unveiled new hardware and software features, including a new AI-based built-in voice, facial and gesture recognition, and ambient sound monitoring that enables what the company calls "natural and intuitive interaction."
"It's incredibly exciting to be releasing a new way to experience sound and deliver something truly groundbreaking to market," Noveto CEO Christophe Ramstein said.
