SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMIC AUDIO CHANNEL ORIENTATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240214760 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMIC AUDIO CHANNEL ORIENTATION

Simplified Explanation:

This patent application describes a system and method for adjusting the orientation of audio channels based on the listener's orientation within a listening space.

  • The invention utilizes a spatial mapping of multiple audio transducers in a listening space.
  • Audio output is directed to specific transducers based on the listener's orientation.
  • The listener's orientation is determined using a sensor worn or held by the listener.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Dynamic adjustment of channel orientation based on listener's orientation.
  • Spatial mapping of audio transducers within the listening space.
  • Route audio output to specific transducers based on listener's orientation.
  • Use of sensors to determine listener's orientation.

Potential Applications:

  • Home entertainment systems.
  • Virtual reality and augmented reality experiences.
  • Theatrical sound design.
  • Gaming audio systems.

Problems Solved:

  • Ensures optimal audio experience for the listener.
  • Provides immersive sound based on listener's position.
  • Enhances spatial audio accuracy.

Benefits:

  • Improved audio immersion.
  • Personalized audio experience.
  • Enhanced spatial awareness in audio content.

Commercial Applications:

Dynamic Audio Channel Orientation System: Enhancing Immersive Audio Experiences

Questions about Dynamic Audio Channel Orientation System:

1. How does the system determine the listener's orientation accurately?

  - The system uses sensors worn or held by the listener to track their orientation in real-time.

2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in large-scale venues?

  - Large-scale venues may require complex spatial mapping and calibration for optimal performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system and method for dynamically adjusting channel orientation as a function of a listener's orientation. the invention employs a spatial mapping of the plurality of audio transducers within a given listening space and routes the audio output intended for each of the transducers based upon the orientation of a listener within the space. ideally, the listener's orientation is determined via a sensor worn, held or otherwise affixed to the listener.
