HTC社 Thin Film 스피커 특허 출원
Mobile/HTC 2010. 5. 8. 22:05 |이번에 HTC에서 출원한 Thin Film 형태의 박막 스피커 관련 특허가 공개되었다.
휴대폰이 슬림해지면서 실장공간 부족이 항상 이슈인데 스피커도 마찬가지.
Thin Film 타입으로 스피커 공간과 어느정도 품질의 출력 2마리 토끼를 과연
같이 잡을 수 있을까?

We’ve seen thin-film speakers around, but generally they make for pretty poor replacements for regular speakers. I mean, think about it: for bass frequencies, something actually has to move, like, an inch back and forth. I don’t care what kind of promises these gadgets make about turning your wall into a speaker, they’re just going to be completely missing out on a whole segment of sound. But what’s a device that’s never had, and likely never will have, any bass? Yes, every mobile phone ever made.
It could be that they’re just looking into it, but it really makes a fair amount of sense. Instead of a tiny “real” speaker, the whole back of the phone could be a speaker, and perhaps even double as the vibrating element as well. Sure, your music won’t sound great, but it’ll sound better than whatever comes out of that tiny-ass little thing you’ve got right now.
The method they’re attempting to patent is a way of easily mass-producing electret loudspeakers and integrating them with, one assumes, a phone chassis. They get more into the actual theoretical implementation in a separate patent.
Sure, why not?
