'Implementing the hardware and software required to deliver a robust, interoperable, CD-quality Bluetooth audio solution is a major engineering effort', says Greg Burns, Open Interface's CTO.
'Open Interface and Leadtek have integrated the hardware and software in a module that can be incorporated directly into a headphone, speaker, or other audio system by engineers who have little or no familiarity with Bluetooth, RF design, or audio hardware'.
'Leadtek is very pleased to be providing the hardware modules for the world's leading Bluetooth audio solution', said Yung Yu, US Sales and Marketing.
'Open Interface's expertise in Bluetooth and audio software complement Leadtek's extensive hardware design and manufacturing expertise'.
'Together, we're producing high quality components for less cost than most OEMs would pay for internally developed solutions'.
