  • Babble in Secret: Sonare Technologies, a newly formed Herman Miller company, introduced "Babble" at NeoCon in Chicago.

Babble works by multiplying the user's voice and sending out a randomized voice stream with the user's natural voice, the combination of those voices making it "impossible" to decipher.
