SURROUND SOUND IN AUTOMOTIVE AUDIO SYSTEM
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250063305 titled 'SURROUND SOUND IN AUTOMOTIVE AUDIO SYSTEM
Original Abstract Submitted
a method of adapting an automotive audio system to support surround sound comprises: configuring an application program for creation of an audio track object that specifies passthrough mode as a playback mode, wherein the application program is installed to operate under an operating system that is not configured for surround sound; configuring a framework of the operating system with a bypass past a mixer of the operating system, wherein the bypass allows surround-sound data of the audio track object to bypass the mixer; and configuring a hardware abstraction layer with a separate channel for the surround-sound data received from the operating system, wherein the hardware abstraction layer processes the surround-sound data before providing the processed surround-sound data to a decoder.
