Lays Potato Chips + Happiness Saigon team up to create plug in that automatically turns subtitles on when you crunch potato chips

In their newest campaign, Lays Potato Chips have released a plug in for Google Chrome via Happiness Saigon that detects the sounds of crunching chips and automatically turns subtitles on for the YouTube video you are watching.

Happiness Saigon, part of the FCB network, knew that people love to snack while they’re watching their favourite Youtubers, but when you’re crunching and munching it can be hard to hear the audio.

To solve this problem, and make the video watching experience better for everyone, Crispy Subtitles was created.

The team trained an AI on 178 hours of crispy chip crunch sounds gathered from around the world, to create a one-of-a-kind plugin which is able to detect and activate subtitles from the second it hears a crunch, so viewers can snack without missing a single thing.

This revolution in snacking is available for free on the Google Chrome store globally. Try it out here.
