CKS Entertainment Systems Introduce The Soundbug (8/6/2004)

Initially developed as a highly portable alternative to headphones or loudspeakers for use with products such as portable CD, MP3, MiniDisc and cassette players.

Smaller than a computer mouse, Soundbug plugs into the standard 3.5mm headphone socket of any device. A sucker push ring attaches it firmly to any hard, glossy surface such as glass, metal or MDF. It could be a table, a mirror, a worktop, a desk, or a window. The signal from the audio device creates a soundingboard out of the surface to which it is attached, reproducing sound in a new way.

The magnetic field that causes the tiny amount of Terfenol-D inside the Soundbug to react, is created by a drive coil around the Terfenol-D.

A single Soundbug can generate sound levels of up to 75dB, loud enough for a group of people to enjoy music together, or listen to the sound output from a laptop presentation or a camcorder video. Two Soundbugs can be linked in parallel to reproduce full stereo and a significantly increased sound output.
