SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ADAPTIVE ADDITIVE SOUND - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18091699 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ADAPTIVE ADDITIVE SOUND

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for adaptive additive sound, where ambient sound data from one zone is used to generate audio signal data for another zone within a space.

  • The method involves receiving ambient sound data from a microphone in the first zone.
  • The ambient sound data is analyzed to generate audio signal data for the second zone.
  • The audio signal data is then transmitted to a speaker in the second zone.
  • The first zone and the second zone are separate areas within the same space.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Adaptive additive sound method for generating audio signals based on ambient sound data.
  • Utilization of ambient sound data from one zone to enhance sound in another zone.
  • Separation of zones within a space for improved sound quality and adaptability.

Potential Applications: The technology can be used in:

  • Home audio systems
  • Public address systems
  • Conference rooms
  • Theaters
  • Virtual reality environments

Problems Solved:

  • Enhances sound quality in specific zones.
  • Allows for adaptive sound based on ambient conditions.
  • Improves overall audio experience in various settings.

Benefits:

  • Customized sound experience in different zones.
  • Seamless integration of ambient sound data for better audio output.
  • Enhanced adaptability and flexibility in sound systems.

Commercial Applications: Title: Adaptive Additive Sound Technology for Enhanced Audio Experiences This technology can be utilized in various commercial settings such as:

  • Entertainment venues
  • Smart homes
  • Corporate offices
  • Educational institutions
  • Virtual reality gaming centers

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to adaptive sound technologies, microphone data analysis, and sound transmission methods in audio systems.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in adaptive sound technologies, spatial audio processing, and microphone array systems for improved audio experiences.

Questions about Adaptive Additive Sound Technology: 1. How does the method differentiate between ambient sound data in different zones? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in large-scale venues?


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for adaptive additive sound includes receiving ambient sound data corresponding to ambient sound in a first zone acquired by a microphone in the first zone, analyzing the ambient sound data from the first zone, generating audio signal data for the second zone based at least in part on the ambient sound data from the first zone, and transmitting the audio signal data for the second zone to a speaker in the second zone. The first zone is separate from the second zone within a space.
