Un-Tethered Wireless Audio System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240298112 titled 'Un-Tethered Wireless Audio System
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a wireless speaker audio system that can receive audio information wirelessly from an audio source using two wireless transceivers. One transceiver establishes a bidirectional secondary wireless link with the audio source, while both transceivers communicate with each other via a primary wireless link.
- The system includes first and second wireless transceivers for receiving audio wirelessly.
- The first transceiver establishes a bidirectional secondary wireless link with the audio source.
- The first and second transceivers communicate via a primary wireless link.
- The audio source sends audio information to the first transceiver using a secondary wireless link.
- The first transceiver acknowledges successful reception of audio information.
Potential Applications: 1. Home entertainment systems 2. Portable speakers for outdoor activities 3. Wireless audio setups in conference rooms 4. Audio systems in vehicles 5. Public address systems in large venues
Problems Solved: 1. Eliminates the need for wired connections between audio source and speakers. 2. Provides flexibility in speaker placement. 3. Simplifies audio setup and configuration. 4. Enhances mobility and convenience.
Benefits: 1. Wireless audio transmission. 2. Improved flexibility in speaker placement. 3. Easy setup and configuration. 4. Enhanced mobility and convenience. 5. Reduced clutter from wires.
Commercial Applications: Wireless speaker systems can be marketed to consumers for home entertainment purposes, as well as to businesses for conference rooms, public address systems, and other audio needs. The technology can also be integrated into vehicles for enhanced audio experiences.
Questions about Wireless Speaker Audio System: 1. How does the bidirectional secondary wireless link improve audio transmission? 2. What are the advantages of using two wireless transceivers in the system?
