Written By notebooktabletphone

Sharp began recruiting supporters to collaborate with wearable neck speakers AQUOS Sound Partners < AN-SS2 > and the popular variety show "how about Wednesday" on Dec. 17. The "HTB online Store" operated by Hokkaido Television and Broadcasting Co., Ltd. (head office: Sapporo City, Hokkaido, Chairman: Tanedaro) will accept limited bookings in July, 2021. It is a popular model that immediately sold out. This time, in order to meet the hopes of many clans, we will start recruiting supporters within the limits of crowdfunding.

"how about Wednesday?" × "AQUOS Voice partner"

"how about Wednesday", which commercializes the cooperation model, is a popular variety show produced by Hokkaido TV since 1996. DVD and surrounding goods are also on sale since the beginning of the 1/4 century.

The AQUOS Sound partner is an audio device worn around the neck that wirelessly listens to TV sounds and smartphone music without blocking the surrounding sound. Equipped with a microphone that can be connected to smartphones and computers for hands-free calls and video conferencing.

I can't stand samurai! Provide voice guidance through the real voice of the director

AQUOS sound partners provide voice guidance (voice guidance) based on the operation, such as when booting up. This machine includes the newly recorded voice instructions from the popularity director of the program, Tadashi Fujimura and Hiroyo Yadao. If the battery drops while in use, "Oh, come on, you ask me to charge me", and if the volume is set to the maximum, "Oh, my God, it's the loudest!" Oh, my God, no! "wait a minute, let me know by voice. You can use it while enjoying the voice guidance of the real voice of the directors.

() is the voice guidance of the basic model.

[when the power is on] (the power is on)

[pairing ready] (pairing ready)

[when voice-guided switching] (Japanese / English)

[when the volume operation is maximum] (electronic sound "skin")

[minimum volume operation] (electronic tone "po")

[when shutting down]

One of them will flow.

A total of 26 voice guides were used.

Depending on the model of the joint smartphone, the voice guidance about the phone ring sometimes does not ring.

How about Wednesday? our samurai designed a logo.

In addition to the body and the attached Bluetooth transmitter, the product packaging also uses the original design of "how about Wednesday" logo, and limited postcards are also attached to the body.

The USB terminal of the TV is connected to the headphone terminal, and the sound of the TV is played by the AQUOS sound partner of the possible machine.

How about Wednesday? comments from the director

What do you think? it's a product sold only to samurai. Because this guy's tone is arrogant. There are no such appliances. However, if it is a clan, it should be a distressing pleasure. Because, the screenwriter's voice that the lineup always hears can be heard in your ear. Which means you're a member of the Legion if you wear this.

You usually have questions about voice guidance and try to guide you with a comfortable voice. If you are here, please buy it right away. The voice guide of this machine is not a popular handsome guy. The language is not good either. I can't bear to hear it. When you fail, the voice of the voice guide will pay off. Children can't listen. As a favorite artifact that only belongs to you, recommend it to your family and acquaintances to keep it a secret. All right, buy it.

"how about Wednesday" means < https://www.htb.co.jp/suidou/ >

A late-night local program that began broadcasting on Hokkaido TV in 1996. There are 2 performers, and it is a variety show for a small number of people such as 2 directors to travel blindly. On the basis of the shooting method of the digital camera used in the family, the director has a minimum staff of only two people, with outstanding mobility, and the excellent communication between the "click" performer and the director is supported immediately. In September 2002, "how about Wednesday, the Last hour Special" was temporarily suspended, but the "new" special was broadcast at a slow pace every one to two years.
