Anyone who has been to a conference knows they can be noisy places: lots of overlapping conversations taking place all at the same time, making it hard to hear. It’s situations like this where Auracast can shine.

Now, an Australian firm has hit upon the answer: Auracast Silent Conference.

Congress Australia says it offers smarter, clearer event audio for anyone offering multi-session spaces. As with all Auracast systems, it enables clear, focused audio being relayed to receivers, be they hearing aids, headphones, Cochlear or earbuds. Because these can be built into the receiving devices, there is no need for loudspeakers or silent disco-style systems; for those who bring their own device to a venue, it’s just a case of connecting to the Auracast via an Auracast Assistant app.

In a blog post detailing the Auracast Silent Conference solution, Congress Australia outlines potential use cases. They include the ability to run silent theatre on exhibition floors or side by side, ensuring people can hear without noise spilling over from one presentation to the next.

With exhibition booths, people can listen to presentations coming directly from a TV, laptop, or microphone without the soundtracks being heard in neighbouring booths. The result, they say, is a more immersive booth experience that can lead to longer visitor engagement and more meaningful conversations with prospective clients.

At conferences, breakout zones can take place in the same room, with Congress Australia promising 10-plus audio channels. This gives greater flexibility than conventional three-channel silent disco systems.

Auracast can also be used for product launches, training sessions, workshops and presentations, making it easier for delegates to hear clearly. As we’ve noted before, it is possible to offer live translation streams.

Congress Australia says its system includes premium over-ear headphones that delegates can borrow, it offers active noise cancelling, experienced technical support and practical event delivery expertise.

“Auracast Silent Conference gives organisers a smarter, cleaner and more professional way to deliver audio in challenging event environments. It helps reduce noise spill, improve delegate focus and support flexible event layouts,” the company notes in a blog post.

Its systems can be rented, and its setup includes system design, transmitters, headphones, microphones, installation, testing, configuration, and on-site technical support – regardless of whether the setup is an exhibition booth or a multilingual conference.

The company works in Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan and Singapore.
