FCS Technology – Space & weight efficient speaker drivers

Resonado specializes in a space efficient speaker drivers utilizing its patented technology (Flat Core Speaker (FCS) Technology) to fit into different applications that were otherwise not possible with the traditional speaker design. Through redesigning the speaker structure to maintain high performance, while minimizing the size and weight, FCS Technology eliminates many of the integration constraints that a regular conical speaker has faced. With this transducer topology, it addresses any and all audio solutions with better performance and design flexibility, while addressing untapped use-cases, leveraging its form factor advantages. FCS Tech is widely scalable and can be used to build speakers as small as micro-speakers for smart phones, to entire sound systems for aircraft, command centers and vehicles. Through an easier manufacturing process, reduction in back volume and total material required, and use of simple components, costs can be lowered comparatively and more consistent quality can be assured. FCS technology rethinks the conventional structure with its unique design and makes it only fully scalable, but also efficient in its performance and cost against the conventional type.    There have been numerous other flat speakers invented over the years; yet if you break open any standard, mass produced product, you’ll still find a conical speaker, because all transducer innovations have been unable to take over the market due to their limited mass market applicability or absurd cost, therefore proving inefficient. Resonado is the first company that can single-handedly replace every speaker in every product, globally with a Technology Readiness level (TRL)-9.    The difference in a Flat Core Speaker is the electromagnetic structure. A conventional speaker is burdened by the need for a cylindrical voice coil and slotted magnet-yoke assembly. Other niche transducer technologies have been invented, but none have ever been as simple, elegant, and effective as this. An Resonado speaker consists of a bar magnet assembly with a vertical voice coil coupled to a stiff diaphragm and suspension which is an inherently more adaptable and effective design. For automotive and aerospace, implementing FCS technology means a far lighter sound system (in its both weight and power use) and far more flexible speaker placement (no more low door speakers blasting music at the feet). For industries that are size sensitive, we can provide smaller speakers with greater output. For electric vehicles, as an example, FCS can enable a system that does not require a separate DC converter to handle the higher input power requirement of speakers, as less power is needed with fewer, but more efficient, drivers. Every industry could benefit from its versatile structure - being able to have a speaker that’s any shape opens entirely new horizons. Having a crystal-clear sound quality will also be a benefit for products where fidelity matters, such as PA and home theater systems.
