- Dial-up modems used sound to transmit data over telephone networks.
- Zoom Rooms use ultrasonic sound for proximity detection in meetings.
- Ultrasonic signals enable instant connection without pairing codes or Bluetooth.
- The ultrasonic frequencies used by Zoom are slightly audible to some people.
- Hearing damage over time may reduce the ability to hear these frequencies.
