IP65-protected loudspeaker and microphone integration behind glass

Compared to conventional methods such as CNC milling or water jet cutting, laser cutting allows for even more precise cuts, very narrow distances between individual drill holes and a wide variety of shapes. This technology can be used to create innovative designs, particularly for thin glass (1 to 3 mm) with chemical hardening and organic or ceramic printing.

The seamless integration of membrane-protected loudspeakers means that devices with IP65 protection can also be used outdoors. In addition, the laser cutting method also facilitates the implementation of contactless control solutions using hidden microphones – for modern voice control applications.

"Laser cutting technology opens up completely new possibilities and designs in the field of glass manufacturing that were previously not feasible for cost or feasibility reasons. By integrating loudspeakers and microphones without separate components and in an elegant all-in-one design, our customers have new opportunities to equip even unusual locations with their products," explains Sonja Fehn, Product Manager Hardware (Cover Lens, Bonding, Sensors) at DATA MODUL.

As a system integrator, we offer our customers complete solutions – from front-end assemblies to finished systems – including loudspeakers, amplifiers and cabling. Upon request, we provide a demonstration to showcase the wide range of possible applications.
