At #AVARIG2026 Nokia, @Dolby and @FraunhoferIIS team up to show how immersive communication moves beyond voice and video. Nokia combines IVAS and MPEG-I so users move naturally within a shared audio scene in 6DoF.
See you in Paris 30 June–1 July!
🎣 Out by the lake, the soundscape is the scene: a cork bobbing on still water, wind through the birches, laughter from the next dock.
Immersive and intelligent audio is built to carry exactly this kind of moment.

Here’s a look at Nokia’s 6G XR Audio Experience.
Immersive audio reacts as you move — shifting with distance, direction and environment in real time.
Powered by MPEG‑I immersive audio and the 3GPP IVAS codec, it brings spatial sound to life in an XR playground.
#ImmersiveAudio
At #MWC26 Barcelona (2–5 Mar), step into our virtual sound playground: move and the audio reacts with lifelike reflections and reverb. Visit the Nokia booth in Hall 3, Stand 3B20, and request the 6G XR Audio Experience demo at reception.
