Inside Jabra’s Earbud Production: AI, Dummies, and Sonic Chambers
Jabra, originally founded in the United States in 1983 and later acquired by Denmark’s Great Northern Telegraph Company, boasts a global user base of 44 million. The company is renowned for various products, including headsets, wireless earbuds, video conferencing systems, and hearing aids.
Located just outside Copenhagen, Jabra’s headquarters offers extensive facilities for designing, testing, and developing its audio products. The company’s design philosophy focuses on end-user requirements, emphasizing functionality, comfort, and discretion.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a significant role in Jabra’s product development, particularly in enhancing communication capabilities and noise-canceling technologies.
Jabra’s testing facilities are comprehensive. They include anechoic chambers to test sonic directionality, and “Diffuse Field chambers” equipped with a Head And Torso Simulator (HATS) to measure active noise cancellation (ANC) performance. Additional rooms test antenna performance, microphone efficacy in windy conditions, and audio clarity in varied environments such as a car.
Key features of Jabra’s lab include a “Flexible Acoustics” room, where adjustable panels alter the room’s acoustic characteristics, and a dedicated chamber for testing surround sound, filled with multiple KEF LS50 speakers.
Through rigorous testing and a strong design ethos, Jabra ensures high-quality products tailored to meet diverse consumer needs.
