Let’s meet in Japan!

Makuhari Messe Hall 6 / Booth No. 7210

InterBEE is one of Asia’s leading exhibitions for broadcast, audio, and media technologies – and Fraunhofer IIS is proud to be part of it once again. At our booth, we’ll showcase cutting-edge audio and video innovations that are shaping the future of immersive and accessible media experiences.

^{NESC – AI-Powered Voice Codec for NTN Satellite Communication}

Delivering clear speech at ultra-low bitrates, NESC sets a new benchmark for voice transmission over Non-Terrestrial Networks. Optimized for large-scale deployment across LEO and GEO satellite systems, it enables reliable, high-quality calls at just 1 kbit/s or less. Now commercially ready for Satellite Network Operators (SNOs) and Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), NESC is poised to redefine voice services in space-based connectivity.

^{xHE-AAC – The Best Audio Codec for Streaming and Messaging}

Trusted by leading platforms like Netflix, Facebook, Instagram, and Audible, xHE-AAC delivers exceptional audio performance across a wide range of applications – from music and video to podcasts and audiobooks. Already supported by AWS Elemental MediaConvert and integrated into Amazon’s Vega OS, it also becomes the mandatory codec for GSMA RCS Audio Messaging. With native support on over 5 billion consumer devices across Apple, Google, Amazon, and Microsoft ecosystems, xHE-AAC ensures consistent loudness, stereo bitrates from 12 to 320+ kb/s, and seamless playback across content types. The future of audio is here – and it sounds better than ever.
