AUDIO VIDEO RECEIVER (AVR) ARCHITECTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240040190 titled 'AUDIO VIDEO RECEIVER (AVR) ARCHITECTURE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an AVR (audio-video receiver) device that connects audio and video source devices to rendering devices. The device includes a front panel user interface with a display, input-output modules connected to a backplane board, and at least one network interface. System-on-modules (SOMs) are mounted on the backplane board to decode and process audio and video data from the source devices for rendering by the rendering devices. The SOMs also execute an operating system that generates a GUI displayed on the front panel display. A video subsystem module on the backplane board routes the audio and video data between the SOMs and the input-output modules.
- The AVR device connects audio and video source devices to rendering devices.
- It includes a front panel user interface with a display.
- Input-output modules are connected to a backplane board in the housing.
- The device has at least one network interface.
- System-on-modules (SOMs) are mounted on the backplane board.
- The SOMs decode and process audio and video data from the source devices.
- The SOMs execute an operating system that generates a GUI displayed on the front panel display.
- A video subsystem module on the backplane board routes the audio and video data between the SOMs and the input-output modules.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Home theater systems
- Audio and video conferencing systems
- Multimedia streaming devices
Problems solved by this technology:
- Simplifies the connection and management of audio and video source devices and rendering devices.
- Provides a user-friendly interface for controlling and displaying audio and video content.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved audio and video quality through decoding and processing capabilities.
- Simplified setup and operation of audio and video systems.
- Enhanced user experience with a GUI displayed on the front panel interface.
Original Abstract Submitted
an avr device in accordance with one or more embodiments connects audio and video source devices to audio and video rendering devices. a front panel user interface including a display is integrated in the housing of the avr device. input-output (io) modules are coupled to a backplane board in the housing to be connected to the source devices and the rendering devices. the 10 modules include at least one network interface. system-on-modules (soms) are mounted on the backplane board. the soms are configured to decode and process audio and video data received from the audio and video source devices for rendering by the audio and video rendering devices and execute an operating system generating a gui displayed on the display of the front panel user interface. a video subsystem module on the backplane board is configured to route the audio and video data between the plurality of soms and the 10 modules.
