TOA AM-1B Real-Time Steering Array Microphone

TOA-AM-1B-Real-Time-Steering-Array-PRODUCT

Equipped with a built-in sensor to detect and track sound sources, the TOA Real-time Steering Array Microphone captures voices clearly and continuously from either side, above or below. This frees speakers to move back and forth in the vicinity of the podium, turn or tilt their heads to address different sections of the audience, or gesture naturally without concern for the location of the microphone. Placed unobtrusively on top of the podium or pulpit, this innovative voice-tracking microphone completely eliminates the interference and inconvenience of gooseneck or handheld mikes.

Unobstrusive desktop design

Adopts an innovative pad-like form permitting unobtrusive placement flat on the podium.

  • Removal of barrier between speaker and audience
  • Freedom to adopt a comfortable speaking posture
  • Ability to move and gesture naturally

Unprecedented voice-tracking capability

Features a unique ability to detect the speaker’s voice, and to track and capture it clearly and reliably, even if the speaker is moving.

  • Built-in voice detection/tracking sensor
  • Voice capture from up to 3 meters and to tracking range angles up to 180 degrees
  • Level compensation for reduced volume variations
  • Narrow (50-degree) directivity assuring minimal acoustic feedback
