LATENCY HANDLING FOR POINT-TO-POINT COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233742 titled 'LATENCY HANDLING FOR POINT-TO-POINT COMMUNICATIONS

Simplified Explanation: The patent application focuses on improving point-to-point audio communications by taking into account human sensitivity to latency differences in multipath communications. It involves measuring ambient noise levels and processing received audio signals based on this information before emitting them through a loudspeaker worn by the listener.

  • Selective processing of electronic audio based on ambient noise levels
  • Improving point-to-point audio communications
  • Consideration of human sensitivity to latency differences
  • Enhancing the listening experience through tailored audio processing
  • Utilizing multipath communications for improved audio quality

Potential Applications: This technology could be applied in various industries such as telecommunications, broadcasting, virtual reality, and gaming where high-quality audio communication is essential. It can also be used in public address systems, conference calls, and audio recording equipment.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses issues related to latency in audio communications, ensuring that the received audio is processed effectively based on ambient noise levels. It aims to provide a seamless and high-quality listening experience for users in different environments.

Benefits: - Enhanced audio quality in point-to-point communications - Improved user experience through tailored audio processing - Reduction of latency issues in multipath communications - Better adaptation to varying ambient noise levels - Increased clarity and intelligibility of audio signals

Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in telecommunications devices, audio equipment, virtual reality headsets, and gaming consoles to enhance the audio experience for users. It has the potential to improve communication systems in various commercial settings, leading to better customer satisfaction and user engagement.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve audio quality in multipath communications? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this selective audio processing technology in different devices and environments?


Original Abstract Submitted

aspects of the subject technology provide improved point-to-point audio communications based on human variable sensitivity to latency differences in multipath communications. in aspects, improved techniques may include measuring a level of ambient noise, and then selecting processing for a received electronic audio based on the measured level of ambient noise before emitting the processed audio signal at a loudspeaker worn by a listener.
