ACOUSTIC OUTPUT DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18432210 titled 'ACOUSTIC OUTPUT DEVICES
The present disclosure introduces an acoustic output device that utilizes two separate diaphragms to produce a directional acoustic field.
- The device consists of a first acoustic assembly with a vibrating first diaphragm that generates a sound.
- A second acoustic assembly includes a second diaphragm that vibrates to produce another sound.
- A portion of the second diaphragm is positioned around the first diaphragm.
- The vibrational phases of the two diaphragms are opposite in a specific frequency range.
- The interference between the two sounds creates a directional acoustic field pointing towards a target direction.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in directional speakers for public announcements or entertainment venues. - It may also have applications in virtual reality and augmented reality systems for immersive audio experiences.
Problems Solved: - Provides a way to create a focused sound projection without the need for complex speaker arrays. - Offers a solution for directing sound towards specific areas or individuals in crowded environments.
Benefits: - Improved sound localization and clarity in noisy environments. - Enhanced user experience in interactive audio applications.
Commercial Applications: Title: Directional Acoustic Output Device for Enhanced Sound Projection This technology could be utilized in public address systems, theme parks, museums, and gaming setups to provide targeted audio experiences.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the directional acoustic field benefit users in different settings? - The directional acoustic field allows for precise sound projection, enhancing the listening experience for individuals in various environments. 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology on a larger scale? - Scaling up the technology for commercial applications may require addressing issues related to power consumption and manufacturing costs.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides an acoustic output device. The acoustic output device includes a first acoustic assembly and a second acoustic assembly. The first acoustic assembly may comprise a first diaphragm, and the first diaphragm vibrates to produce a first sound. The second acoustic assembly may comprise a second diaphragm, the second diaphragm vibrates to produce a second sound, wherein at least a portion of the second diaphragm may be disposed around the first diaphragm. Vibrational phases of the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm may be opposite in a target frequency range, and the second sound may interfere with the first sound to produce a directional acoustic field pointing to a target direction.
