Relaxation Portal is the First Mobile Application to Utilize SRS Labs’ TruGaming 3D Audio Positioning Solution
SANTA ANA, Calif., June 23, 2011 – SRS Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRSL), officially recognized as one of America’s Greatest Brands and the industry leader in surround sound, audio and voice technologies, today announced that it has released Relaxation Portal, the most sophisticated relaxation-themed application available to Apple i-device and Android® users, that puts the world at users’ fingertips, allowing them to both see and hear sights and sounds from popular world destinations in immersive 3D surround sound.
Relaxation Portal is the first mobile application available that utilizes SRS’ TruGaming™, an advanced 3D audio technology that was designed specifically for placing sounds accurately in three-dimensional space over headphones. The App also features other SRS technologies, delivering the most immersive audio experience available on a mobile App.
“As a company driven by innovation and out-of-box thinking, we are very excited about the release of our Relaxation Portal App, as it is not only the first entertainment-focused mobile application developed by SRS’ in-house App development team, but the first mobile application that utilizes SRS’ advanced TruGaming 3D audio engine,” said Allen H. Gharapetian, Senior Vice President of Marketing for SRS Labs. “Relaxation Portal is truly unique because, unlike any other relaxation or white noise application available, it provides users with the ability to custom tailor their listening environment to their preference for an interactive, personalized experience – all while processing the application’s sound effects with SRS audio enhancement solutions, adding to the real-life feel of the user’s experience.”
The App is designed with fun and entertainment in mind. It is animated, vividly colorful, and easy to play with, allowing users of all ages to explore the globe and learn about cultures and customs while enjoying unique visual and audio characteristics of each destination. Unlike other white noise apps, Relaxation Portal delivers high-definition 3D sound and comes packed with interactive features that let the users customize their experience, based on their preferences. For example, users can turn off some sounds, while increasing the intensity of others or toggle between “night mode” and “day mode”.
The Free version of Relaxation Portal comes preloaded with four locations (Amazon Rainforest, Crete, Martha’s Vineyard, and Namibia) with an available fifth location, China (during Chinese New Year), free to fans of SRS Labs on Facebook.
