What Is Auracast?

Auracast is a new Bluetooth standard that allows:
• public venues to broadcast audio
• hearing aids to connect directly
• clearer sound in busy environments
• easy access to announcements, TVs and presentations
It’s designed to replace traditional loop systems with a more flexible, modern solution.

Where Auracast Will Be Used

Auracast is expected to appear in:
• airports
• train stations
• theatres
