Treble Technologies will host “Engineering Smart Glasses Audio for the Real World” on November 5, 2026, to explore how acoustic simulation helps teams develop better audio for smart glasses. The webinar will follow a development workflow from virtual eyewear models to synthetic training data and system evaluation, showing how engineers can investigate audio performance across different wearers and environments.

Audio has become central to the smart glasses proposition, whether the application involves calls, spoken AI interactions, navigation, or media playback.

Noble Foods and AgriSound test sound-based system on free-range farms Noble Foods has launched a pioneering on‑farm project to explore how acoustic technology can be used to better understand, monitor and improve the welfare of laying hens – marking a significant leap forward in evidence‑led animal welfare in UK egg production, according to a company-issued press release. The project was made possible through a successful funding bid to Innovate UK, the UK’s national innovation agency, led by Emily Marshall, Agriculture Sustainability Manager at Noble Foods. The funding supports a two‑year research‑led trial designed to test how emerging agri‑tech can be applied practically, credibly and at scale within a commercial laying hen environment. Developed in partnership with agri‑tech specialists AgriSound and Aviasenze, and hosted on a working free‑range farm in East Yorkshire, the project will trial a new acoustic welfare monitoring system designed specifically for laying hens – the first application of its kind within the UK egg sector. Alongside the free-range trial, Noble Foods is also testing the technology within one of its barn laying facilities.
