It\u2019s metadata that is used by compatible audio gear to control which speakers are reproducing certain sounds. A good example is when a aircraft flies overhead in a movie. Without Atmos information, the sound of the aircraft is embedded in one, or many, of the surround sound channels. But so are all of the other sounds you\u2019re hearing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Atmos-immersion.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5753\" src=\"https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Atmos-immersion.png\" alt=\"Dolby Atmos Explained\" width=\"781\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Atmos-immersion.png 781w, https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Atmos-immersion-300x141.png 300w, https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Atmos-immersion-768x360.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 781px) 100vw, 781px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>With Dolby Atmos, the aircraft is treated as its own discrete object, and a Dolby Atmos receiver can use that information to separate the aircraft sound from the background sounds and move it independently from one speaker to another. The result is a very convincing 3D placement of sounds for a much more immersive movie experience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There are many Dolby Atmos-compatible sound bars, and they can get access to Dolby Atmos content then deliver Dolby Atmos sound, that&#8217;s it ?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Technically, yes, but actually no.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For retail display manufacturers or sound bar brand end-users, they are facing the following challenges:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the sound bar demonstrator or soundbar audio player is not Dolby Atmos compatible if they use OEM media players;<\/li>\n<li>the brand audio players which are Dolby Atmos compatible are not re-programmable, that&#8217;s to say, they could not build customized, interactive shopping experience;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Dolby-Atmos-HDMI-sound-bar-demonstrator.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1449\" src=\"https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Dolby-Atmos-HDMI-sound-bar-demonstrator.jpg\" alt=\"Sound bar demonstrator supports Dolby Atmos\" width=\"755\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Dolby-Atmos-HDMI-sound-bar-demonstrator.jpg 755w, https:\/\/posaok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Dolby-Atmos-HDMI-sound-bar-demonstrator-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>AOK Display\u2019s solution is very simple.<\/h2>\n<p>we take advantage of the pass-through capability of our 4K UHD sound bar demonstrator, to let the audio player send the raw audio data to Dolby Atmos Compatible receiver (the demonstration sound bars ) decode the Dolby Atmos content directly.
