It's been almost a year since the Bluetooth SIG "officially launched" Auracast, whatever that means? I haven't heard much about it for many months, what's the status? When/how/where will Auracast enabled devices be available to try in the US? A status update would be appreciated. We are all very impatiently waiting... ;)

Hi Michelle,

One way to get a better sense of Auracast would be to watch the captioned video we shared here:

If you happen to be going to the HLAA convention in New Orleans next month, there will be a workshop and a booth in the exhibit hall on Auracast.

The workshop is called Keeping up with Progress and Deployment of Auracast Broadcast Audio – Latest Updates from the Market will be given by Chuck Sabin on Thursday, June 29, 9:30-10:45 am

You can also visit the Bluetooth SIG website here for more information:
