Could this be the end to Speakers as we know it?

In a strange twist, the British military discovered a revolutionary new method of converting ANY flat surface into a Loud Speaker. The flat surface could be anything from the screen your looking at to a Birthday card - the technology was accidentally discovered when trying to put a theory of sound deadening for military Helicopters into practice.

The technology was sold to Cambridge based NXT who’ve patented it as “Surface Sound” - Toyota have snapped up the technology and already have used it in the headlining of four of their motor vehicles.

NXT recently made a deal with greeting card giant Hallmark to use the technology in “big cards with big sound” when opened, said James Bullen of NXT.
