Audio Radar is reportedly easy to use, with plug-and-play compatibility and customizable features like sensitivity and light behavior. It’s a versatile addition to any gaming setup; the product is designed to work with Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, making games more accessible and enjoyable for all.

The system takes 7.1 surround sound effects such as gunfire and footsteps programmed into today’s most popular first-person shooter (FPS) games. After 2 years of development and 18 months of testing, Audio Radar is set to release.

“We’re thrilled to introduce Audio Radar to gamers,” says Airdrop Gaming Founder and CEO Tim Murphy. “Our goal is to make gaming accessible for everyone. We invite you to try it at CES 2024.”
