AV AMPLIFIER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240015441 titled 'AV AMPLIFIER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an AV amplifier that includes an input unit for digital data and an operation unit for reproduction instructions. A switching unit determines whether to output the digital data to a server interface unit or a DSP based on the reproduction instruction. The DSP processes the digital data to obtain a two-channel signal, which is transmitted to a server by the server interface unit. The server interface unit also receives an audio signal from the server. An audio reproduction unit reproduces the received audio signal and the audio signal output by the DSP. An output unit outputs the reproduced audio signal to speakers. A control unit controls the switching unit and the server interface unit based on the reproduction instruction from the user.

  • The AV amplifier has an input unit for digital data and an operation unit for reproduction instructions.
  • A switching unit determines whether to output the digital data to a server interface unit or a DSP based on the reproduction instruction.
  • The DSP processes the digital data to obtain a two-channel signal.
  • The server interface unit transmits the two-channel signal to a server and receives an audio signal from the server.
  • An audio reproduction unit reproduces the received audio signal and the audio signal output by the DSP.
  • An output unit outputs the reproduced audio signal to speakers.
  • A control unit controls the switching unit and the server interface unit based on the reproduction instruction from the user.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Home theater systems
  • Audio amplifiers for professional audio setups
  • Audio equipment for live events and concerts

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient switching between digital data sources and audio reproduction units
  • Processing and reproducing high-quality audio signals
  • Integration with server-based audio systems

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved audio reproduction quality
  • Flexibility in choosing audio sources
  • Seamless integration with server-based audio systems
  • Enhanced user control and customization options


Original Abstract Submitted

an av amplifier contains an input unit to input digital data and an operation unit that receives a reproduction instruction. a switching unit switches whether to output the digital data input to a server interface unit or dsp in response to the reproduction instruction. the dsp processes the digital data output to obtain and output a two-channel signal, which the server interface unit transmits by the switching unit to a server and receives an audio signal from the server. an audio reproduction unit reproduces the server interface unit received audio signal and an audio signal output by the dsp. an output unit outputs the reproduced audio signal to each speaker and a control unit controls the switching unit and the server interface unit in response to the reproduction instruction from the user. the control unit controls the switching unit, when two-channel audio reproduction is instructed from the user.
