Part 7/9:
Complementing the visual spectacle is the Sphere’s sophisticated sound system, engineered by Holoplot. Featuring 167,000 speakers, this audio technology allows for individualized sound delivery to each seat, enabling tailored audio experiences based on the audience's location. The system uses complex algorithms to manipulate sound waves in real time, creating a distinct audio experience akin to the effect of noise-canceling headphones.
The Audience Experience
The environmental design of the Sphere contributes significantly to the immersive experience. 10,000 of the theater's 18,600 seats are equipped with haptic technology that vibrates according to audio cues. Additionally, the Sphere has incorporated wind and scent effects, enhancing ambiance without overwhelming the senses.
