Dolby Digital is a name given to a family of audio compression technology developed by Dolby Laboratories. The first application of Dolby Digital was within cinemas to provide digital sound to 35mm films. However, in today’s world of technology, the equipment has been developed and adapted to suit TV broadcasts, radio broadcasts via satellite, digital video streaming, DVDs, Blu-ray discs and game consoles. No longer just audio development technology, Dolby has a range of expertise to enhance your cinematic or home experience.
Dolby Vision
Whether you are watching a movie or playing the latest game on your cheap led tv, Dolby Vision can help you feel immersed in the experience with the latest HDR technology. With ultra-vivid picture, you can feel more connected to the story and the visual aspects of your home viewing. Dolby Vision combines two powerful technologies – High Dynamic Range (HDR) and wide colour gamut. It offers a much broader spectrum of depth within colours for that detailed visual that often only comes at the cinemas. Uniting these allows for optimization of every scene without adjusting settings on your device, allowing you to switch from gaming to home cinema with ease.
In 2021, Xbox launched the series X, the first gaming console to enable Dolby Vision for game playing, providing an incredible visual aspect for engagement. Dolby Vision is available across many devices such as tablets, TVs and laptops.
Dolby Sound
Dolby sound is manufactured into millions of products worldwide. As one of the first to produce digital sound within the industry, it has been developed and progressed into the ultimate creator’s staple for movie production and sound production. It offers excellent clarity and pitch with greater detail and richness. Dolby Sound provides dialogue enhancement after much research into finding that our hearing is most sensitive to individuals speaking. It’s volume levelling features ensure that consistency flows throughout the movie, tv or gaming experience.

Dolby Atmos
Whilst Dolby Sound has provided unquestionable quality for many years, developers within Dolby Laboratories have construed a new process altogether called Dolby Atmos. Unlike Dolby Sound, this technology will enable creators to precisely place and move sounds in three-dimensional space by introducing audio objects with much more precision than traditional surround. This innovative new concept allows for a much deeper creative use and a better audio experience both at home and in the cinema.
Dolby Atmos automatically adjusts the sound output based on the number of connected outlets. Most noticeable when played through headphones or surround sound, often you may notice that a sound will play more apparent from one speaker than the other; this is to ensure that the listener receives real-life experiences within immersive sound.
The Future of Technology?
Dolby Atmos and Vision are gaining traction across the gaming industry and will soon be the standard technology for most Microsoft products. Like other technology companies, they are constantly upgrading and developing programs to ensure that their products provide the most engaging audio and visual they can offer.
There are ample big branded TVs utilizing this equipment in their smart TVs, but several companies are choosing to develop the visual and audio aspects in-house with HDR10+. A few brands like Vizio, Hisense, and TCL have support for both on their TVs, but only in America do the likes of Sony and LG offer a platform for Dobly Vision and Dolby Atmos. Take our cheap Samsung TVs, for example; Samsung products still haven’t embraced Dolby’s advanced technology just yet, but still support HDR10+, which is the alternative to Dolby Vision and has the advantage in 2022 with more content.
