2009 International CES

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Powermate today announces at CES the BlueFox™ Voice Controlled 4x Noise Cancelling Bluetooth® Headset featuring Sensory, Inc.’s leading voice control technology. The BlueFox™ BF-301v is the world’s first Bluetooth headset with voice control and Max 4x™ superior noise cancelling technology. Powermate is at CES booth # South 3 31261.

“After developing our proprietary and very successful Max 4x™ Technology products, we decided the next step should be to incorporate voice recognition technology into our new BlueFox line of Bluetooth products,” said Powercam President, Sam Esses. “Using Sensory’s voice control technology combined with the newest live searching technology available today, the BlueFox BF-301v is a full-featured, robust headset. Sensory’s voice recognition technology not only enhances the BF-301v it also provides outstanding convenience and maximum versatility in a lightweight, easy-to-wear unit.”

Esses continues, “In addition, we now use the CSR BC05 chip which dramatically decreases pairing time up to 50%, provides improved sound quality and handles noise levels much better than the CSR BC02 we used before. And, with more states and localities legislating against handheld cell phone use while driving, the full-featured BlueFox BF-301v offers safety and value to consumers at an affordable price and very competitive margins for retailers.”
