BLUETOOTH AUDIO BROADCASTING SYSTEM SUPPORTING BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY AUDIO BROADCASTING OPERATIONS AND CAPABLE OF AVOIDING USER FROM MISSING EXTERNAL ALERT SIGNALS OR SPECIFIC SOUNDS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240306078 titled 'BLUETOOTH AUDIO BROADCASTING SYSTEM SUPPORTING BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY AUDIO BROADCASTING OPERATIONS AND CAPABLE OF AVOIDING USER FROM MISSING EXTERNAL ALERT SIGNALS OR SPECIFIC SOUNDS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a Bluetooth audio broadcasting system that includes a broadcasting device, two member devices, and a control mechanism to adjust volume levels based on environmental cues.
- The system broadcasts Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) audio packets.
- The first member device parses the audio packets to play predetermined audio data.
- The second member device also parses the audio packets to play the same audio data.
- A control command is used to synchronize volume reduction when an alert signal is received or specific ambient sounds are detected.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Utilizes BLE technology for audio broadcasting.
- Synchronizes volume control between multiple devices.
- Responds to environmental cues for volume adjustment.
Potential Applications:
- Home audio systems.
- Public announcement systems.
- Assistive listening devices.
Problems Solved:
- Ensures synchronized audio playback across multiple devices.
- Allows for automatic volume adjustment based on environmental conditions.
Benefits:
- Enhanced user experience with synchronized audio playback.
- Improved accessibility for individuals with hearing impairments.
- Efficient volume control based on environmental cues.
Commercial Applications: Bluetooth Audio Broadcasting System: Enhancing Audio Playback Experience and Accessibility
Prior Art: Further research can be conducted in the field of Bluetooth audio broadcasting systems to identify any existing technologies or patents related to this innovation.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in Bluetooth technology and audio broadcasting systems to incorporate the latest features and improvements in the patent application.
Questions about Bluetooth Audio Broadcasting System: 1. How does the system ensure synchronized volume control between multiple devices? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing volume adjustment based on environmental cues?
Original Abstract Submitted
a bluetooth audio broadcasting system includes: an audio broadcasting device arranged to operably broadcast ble (bluetooth low energy) audio packets; a first bluetooth member device arranged to operably parse the ble audio packets to acquire a predetermined audio data and to operably control a first audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data; and a second bluetooth member device arranged to operably parse the ble audio packets to acquire the predetermined audio data and to operably control a second audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data. when the audio broadcasting device receives an alert signal, or when a specific ambient sound occurs in the surrounding environment of the audio broadcasting device, the audio broadcasting device utilizes a target control command to instruct the first and second bluetooth member devices to synchronously reduce their volume to be lower than a predetermined threshold.
