Scapade is a travel tech brand that has just announced the AirPro Dual Bluetooth transmitter and receiver designed to eliminate the frustrating problem of incompatible audio on in-flight entertainment systems or hire cars.
AirPro is designed to transform any 3.5mm audio output into a fully wireless, shareable listening experience. AirPro plugs directly into airplane seat audio systems using a dual 3.5mm adapter, enabling travelers to connect their wireless headphones. This means you can use your own earphones or headphones instead of those cheap and uncomfortable airline headsets.
With a Bluetooth transmitter, you can watch a film on an in-flight entertainment system, tablet or laptop. AirPro can connect two pairs of Bluetooth headphones simultaneously, making it easy to share audio with a travel companion without disturbing anyone else.
Transmit And Receive
The new AirPro can be switched to Receiver Mode to upgrade any car that has a regular 3.5mm AUX input. Plug the receiver in to stream music, podcasts or navigation instructions from any Bluetooth-capable smartphone. It’s suitable for rental cars or older vehicles that lack Bluetooth connectivity.
Other uses include shared TVs on a treadmill in the gym or hotel TVs or older gaming consoles that lack Bluetooth support. AirPro works as a wireless bridge that transmits audio directly to a pair of wireless headphones for private listening. Additionally, a Bluetooth receiver can be plugged into a pair of active loudspeakers to stream music wirelessly on legacy audio systems.
Pocket-Sized Device
This gadget is small enough to fit in a pocket and offers up to 11 hours of battery life, Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity and USB-C charging. The ability to function as a transmitter or receiver means users need only one device to cover multiple Bluetooth scenarios.
Jacques Walger is the co-founder of Scapade: “As travelers increasingly rely on wireless headphones, compatibility gaps across planes, cars and devices remain a common frustration. The AirPro solves this with a single, intuitive accessory that works anywhere. From long-haul flights to everyday commutes, AirPro ensures users stay connected, wirelessly and effortlessly.”
