If XR is going to be what the world believes it can be, sound has to be a primary consideration and not an afterthought

Disruptors and curious minds! This week, we explore the implications and effects of sound and music in digital experiences and ask what the internet of the future will sound like. Sound hits the brain before visual information, and our brain is looking for reasons not to believe something is real. Have you ever jumped into XR experiences with beautiful visuals only to hear a very flat stereo audio complement? If XR is going to be what the world believes it can be, sound has to be a primary consideration and not an afterthought.
