SOUND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM INCLUDING MICROPHONE AND PERSONAL AUDIO OUTPUT DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056715 titled 'SOUND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM INCLUDING MICROPHONE AND PERSONAL AUDIO OUTPUT DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a communication system that allows sound to be transmitted from a speaker to one or more listeners. The system includes a microphone to capture sound from the speaker and personal audio output devices that are worn by the listeners. Each audio device is in communication with the microphone to receive the captured sound. The audio device consists of a housing that can be worn by the listener, a speaker assembly located near the listener's ears to emit sound, and a sound generation module connected to the speaker assembly to emit sound to the listener. The audio device is designed to simultaneously emit sound from both the microphone and the sound generation module to the listener.

  • The communication system allows sound to be transmitted from a speaker to multiple listeners.
  • The microphone captures sound from the speaker and the personal audio output devices receive the sound.
  • Each audio device consists of a housing, a speaker assembly, and a sound generation module.
  • The speaker assembly emits sound to the listener's ears.
  • The sound generation module emits sound to the listener via the speaker assembly.
  • The audio device can emit sound from both the microphone and the sound generation module simultaneously.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Assistive listening devices for individuals with hearing impairments.
  • Language translation systems for multilingual communication.
  • Audio tour guides for museums or tourist attractions.
  • Group communication systems for sports events or conferences.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Allows for clear and direct sound transmission from a speaker to multiple listeners.
  • Overcomes limitations of distance or background noise that may affect traditional communication systems.
  • Provides personalized audio experiences for individual listeners.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accessibility and inclusivity for individuals with hearing impairments.
  • Enhanced communication and understanding in multilingual settings.
  • Immersive and interactive audio experiences for users.
  • Increased engagement and participation in group communication scenarios.


Original Abstract Submitted

a communication system for transmitting sound from a speaker to one or more listeners comprises a microphone configured to capture sound from the speaker and at least one personal audio output device respectively configured to be worn by the listeners. each personal audio output device is in operative communication with the microphone to receive the captured sound therefrom. the respective audio device comprises a housing configured to be worn by the respective listener; a speaker assembly arranged to be located adjacent ears of the respective listener for emitting sound to the listener's ears; and a sound generation module operatively connected to the speaker assembly and configured to emit sound via the speaker assembly to the respective listener. the respective audio device is configured to concurrently emit, via the speaker assembly, to the respective listener, sound from the microphone and sound from the sound generation module.
