ADAPTIVE AMBIENT LISTENING FOR AUDIO SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240236541 titled 'ADAPTIVE AMBIENT LISTENING FOR AUDIO SYSTEMS

The apparatus described in the patent application includes an audio device that can detect sound and processing circuitry to determine the presence of a relevant sound based on user preferences or audio device parameters. When the relevant sound is detected, the processing circuitry sends a control command to a user listening device to provide the relevant sound to a microphone of the user listening device.

  • Audio device detects sound
  • Processing circuitry determines presence of relevant sound based on user preferences or audio device parameters
  • Control command is sent to user listening device to provide relevant sound to microphone

Potential Applications: - Personalized sound detection and control in devices - Enhanced user experience in audio applications - Assistive technology for individuals with hearing impairments

Problems Solved: - Improving user interaction with audio devices - Customizing sound experiences based on user preferences - Providing accessibility features for individuals with hearing difficulties

Benefits: - Tailored sound experiences for users - Seamless integration of sound control in devices - Enhanced accessibility and usability for all users

Commercial Applications: Title: Personalized Sound Control Technology for Audio Devices This technology can be utilized in various consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and smart speakers to provide personalized sound control features. It can also be integrated into assistive listening devices for individuals with hearing impairments, enhancing their overall audio experience.

Questions about Personalized Sound Control Technology: 1. How does the processing circuitry determine the presence of relevant sound? The processing circuitry uses user preferences or audio device parameters to identify the relevant sound. 2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond personal devices? This technology can also be used in public address systems, conference call devices, and smart home automation systems to enhance sound control and user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

an apparatus can include at least one audio device configured to detect sound. the apparatus can further include processing circuitry to determine presence of a relevant sound relevant to a user of the apparatus based on a user preference or an audio device parameter. the processing circuitry can further, responsive to detecting presence of the relevant sound, provide a control command to a user listening device to command the user listening device to provide the relevant sound to a microphone of the user listening device.
