Yes, we are committed to continually enhancing Audio Radar's performance.
We plan to release regular firmware updates to ensure users have the best possible experience. These updates may include improvements in audio processing algorithms, compatibility with newer gaming consoles or PCs, LED light display functionality enhancements, and additional customizable options.
We recommend that users regularly check for updates to ensure they have the most recent version of the firmware. We will also provide clear instructions on installing these updates when they become available.
Here's a peak into what updates we will have planned:
Minecraft SDK (Summer 2024)
One of our first and most exciting updates, paired with Bluetooth Integration, comes in the summer of 2024. Once launched, all audio radars connected to Bluetooth will be available to update, including a tailored software development kit for the Java Edition of Minecraft. This will enable the Radar to use different colors to signify different in-game sounds and enhance accuracy. This can allow the player to gauge how far away the sound is. In the future, we would like to have a system like this for many other titles.
Bluetooth Integration (Summer 2024)
Along with the Minecraft SDK, the Bluetooth feature will be released. Using an app, users will be able to connect their Radar to the internet and receive software updates. With this method, users will be able to update their Radar instead of having to purchase a new one. The only time we'll need to update hardware would be to cater to more and more powerful displays.
SDK (Software Development Kit) (TBA)
We would like to release SDKs sometime in the future to enable game developers to integrate Audio Radar directly into games. The SDK would allow developers to create different light behaviors and colors based on in-game sounds.
Additional Lighting Behaviors and Scenes
On the more creative side, we are always looking into more behaviors and scenes for the light bars. This will always be an ongoing project that will also improve upon existing behaviors.
Tease of Future Advanced App (TBA)
While the first app will primarily update the Radar, an upcoming application will offer significantly enhanced customization options. Users can customize color themes for light bars and the Radar itself, custom behaviors and scenes, the sharing and downloading of presets, and more overall control over their Radar.
As this is just a rough roadmap, some features may change as we get closer to releasing them.
