Wave Sciences has developed a groundbreaking technology that can solve the “cocktail party problem” – the ability to filter out background noise and focus on a specific speaker in a crowded room. This technology, using AI and advanced algorithms, has been successfully used in forensic investigations, including a murder case where it provided crucial evidence for convictions.
Founder Keith McElveen spent years perfecting this technology, which can analyze how sound bounces around a room and suppress any sounds that couldn’t have come from the target speaker. The results have been so impressive that the US military and other government laboratories are now interested in using it for various applications, such as analyzing sonar signals and improving hostage negotiations.
Wave Sciences aims to expand its technology to be used in smart speakers, cars, virtual reality devices, and even hearing aids. The potential applications are vast, with AI already being used in other areas of forensics and audio analysis. This technology could revolutionize how we interact with audio devices and improve our ability to hear and understand in noisy environments.
