Radically Better Noise Cancelling Technology

Silencer Devices Technology Overview

Technology Advantages

Suppresses both repetitive sounds (such as plane engine noise) and dynamic sounds (like the baby crying in the row behind you) by 50% or more, across the full range of human hearing and beyond, with nearly no latency (less than 1 millionth of a second), using very little processing power. Over 10x the effective frequency range of the commonly used X-LMS Adaptive Filter technology (aka ANC or Automatic Noise Cancelling).

Product Benefit Examples:

Mobile Phone: Hear and Be Heard, wherever you are.

Headphones/Earbuds: Quiet the crying babies and engine noise. A lighter & more comfortable product.

Virtual Assistants: Will understand you better. Will “hear” you over the music you asked it to play. Won’t “self-wake” when a commercial says its name.

Laptops/Tablets/Webcams: Never hear “please mute” on a conference call again. Keep your home life out of your home office.

VR/AR/Gaming: Eliminates the “Broadcast Echo” which happens when a user is not wearing a headset.

Air Conditioning Systems & Appliances: Quieter living and working environments.

Vehicle Cabins: Quieter with lower materials cost.

Military: Improved communications, surveillance and stealth.

Intellectual Property

4 US and 15 International Patents, so far. Target patent coverage is a patent moat covering 80% of the Global GDP.

How is Silencer Devices Radically Better than other technology?

Images illustrating the range of Human Hearing from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Includes indications that a Gas-Powered Leaf Blower ranges from around 200 Hz to 6,000 Hz; the Brake Squeal of a City Bus ranges from around 8,000 to 17,000 Hz; the Human Ear is most sensitive between 2,000 Hz and 4,000 Hz; and LMS technology's maximum frequency is only 2,500 Hz.

X-LMS Adaptive Filters:

• Commonly used in headphones & earbuds. Often referred to as “ANC” (automatic noise cancelling)

• Effective on repetitive/cyclical sounds, but not on dynamic sounds

• Effective on lower frequencies between 60Hz – 2500Hz (fails where the ear is most sensitive)

AI-Assisted Finite Impulse Response Filters:

• Used in Microsoft Teams “High” noise reduction setting, which warns you it is a processing power / bandwidth hog

• Can suppress high frequencies, repetitive & dynamic sounds

• Requires significant processing power, time, and energy

Silencer Devices Technology:

• Creates the exact anti-noise required for the application, across the spectrum, in real time (~ 0.0000052s latency)

• Suppresses repetitive & dynamic sounds of any frequency, using very little processing power and energy

• Accomplishes all of the above by effectively pre-calculating the solution to the anti-noise equations
