Voxeet was a VoIP web conferencing software[1] that used 3D high definition voice technology to produce immersive sound. It was available for Windows, iPhone and Android.[2] In 2012, it won the DemoGod Award at DEMO Spring '12.[3] On April 1st 2019 Dolby Labs acquired Voxeet for an undisclosed amount.

Technology[edit]

Voxeet advertised itself as using technology that addressed the limitations of traditional conferencing software by using multiple microphones to reproduce natural location mechanisms. Voxeet's approach aimed to create a virtual 3D audio space that made listening easier and less taxing, citing the cocktail party effect for its functionality.[4]

Features[edit]

Voxeet allowed up to 8 participants to have online conferences with high definition voice and 3D sound on Windows computers, and iPhone and Android phones. Participants used headsets to experience immersion. The system provided:[5]

  • VoiP HD 3D Sound
  • Visual Cues to know who is speaking
  • Mobile phone integration with one-click transfer
