A collaboration between LG and will.i.am for a unique sound identity
LG has chosen to collaborate with will.i.am to develop its xboom range, highlighting a consistent sound identity. The goal is to ensure a homogeneous listening experience, regardless of the chosen model. This approach is based on two distinct sound profiles: a standard mode for balanced listening and a Bass Boost mode for a more dynamic sound, ideal for urban and electronic music.
Innovations of artificial intelligence integrated into the speakers
With the new xboom speakers, artificial intelligence plays a central role. AI Sound automatically adjusts the equalization according to the content, while AI Lighting synchronizes the lights with the music’s rhythm. Additionally, Space Calibration Pro adjusts the sound reproduction based on the environment, ensuring optimal audio quality, whether indoors or outdoors.
FYI.RAiDiO, an AI interface designed by will.i.am, further enriches the user experience. In addition to offering music recommendations and playlists, it provides a more natural interaction thanks to vocal profiles inspired by DJs and cultural personalities.
