POWER MANAGEMENT OF THE MODULAR EAR-CUP AND EAR-BUD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240276134 titled 'POWER MANAGEMENT OF THE MODULAR EAR-CUP AND EAR-BUD
Simplified Explanation: The wearable audio system described in the patent application consists of modular ear-cup and ear-bud components that can be attached and detached independently or together. These components can operate together or separately, with the ability to perform active noise cancellation and wirelessly charge while in use.
- Modular ear-cup and ear-bud components can be attached and detached independently or together.
- Components can operate together or separately, performing active noise cancellation by measuring and canceling out noise.
- The system can be wirelessly charged while in use, allowing for continuous music listening.
- Power consumption is optimized by redistributing tasks to power sources with the highest amount of power.
- Ambient sound outside the ear-cup can be measured and played through the ear-bud speakers.
Potential Applications: 1. Personal audio devices for music listening and noise cancellation. 2. Hands-free communication devices for phone calls and voice commands. 3. Assistive listening devices for individuals with hearing impairments. 4. Audio enhancement tools for virtual reality and augmented reality experiences.
Problems Solved: 1. Inconvenience of traditional wired headphones. 2. Limited battery life for wireless audio devices. 3. Lack of customizable and modular audio solutions. 4. Difficulty in hearing ambient sounds while wearing headphones.
Benefits: 1. Enhanced user experience with customizable audio components. 2. Extended listening time with wireless charging capabilities. 3. Improved noise cancellation for better audio quality. 4. Increased awareness of surrounding environment with ambient sound playback.
Commercial Applications: The wearable audio system can be marketed as a premium audio accessory for smartphones, tablets, and other portable devices. It can also be integrated into sports headphones, gaming headsets, and smart glasses for a more immersive audio experience.
Questions about Wearable Audio System: 1. How does the modular design of the ear-cup and ear-bud components enhance user experience? 2. What are the key advantages of active noise cancellation in this wearable audio system?
Original Abstract Submitted
introduced here is a wearable audio system including modular ear-cup and ear-bud that can be attached and detached to the user together, or independently of each other. further, the modular ear-cup and ear-bud can operate together, or independently of each other. the wearable audio system can perform active noise cancellation by measuring noise inside the ear-cup and/or the ear-bud, computing the noise canceling sound, and forwarding the noise canceling sound to a speaker inside the ear-cup and/or the ear-bud. the wearable audio system can be wirelessly charged while operating, thus allowing the user to continuously listen to music more than previously possible. the wearable audio system can optimize power consumption by redistributing power intensive tasks to power sources with the highest amount of power. further, the ambient sound outside the ear-cup can be measured and played by the speakers in the earbud allowing the user to hear the surrounding environment.
