AUDIO DATA TRANSFER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240340585 titled 'AUDIO DATA TRANSFER
The wearable device described in the patent application consists of a housing, a speaker, and a processor. The speaker is located within the internal volume defined by the housing, and the processor generates a modulated acoustic signal with a first audio wave and a second audio wave, which is then outputted by the speaker.
- The wearable device includes a housing, speaker, and processor.
- The speaker is located within the internal volume defined by the housing.
- The processor generates a modulated acoustic signal with a first and second audio wave.
- The speaker outputs the modulated acoustic signal.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in wearable devices such as smartwatches or fitness trackers to provide audio feedback to users. - It could also be utilized in communication devices for clear audio transmission in noisy environments.
Problems Solved: - Provides a compact and efficient way to generate and output modulated acoustic signals in wearable devices. - Enhances the user experience by incorporating audio feedback in a wearable form factor.
Benefits: - Improved user interaction with wearable devices through audio feedback. - Enhanced communication capabilities in noisy environments.
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Wearable Device Technology for Enhanced User Experience This technology could be commercialized in the wearable technology market for smartwatches, fitness trackers, and communication devices.
