SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS BETWEEN MEDIA MODES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240106881 titled 'SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS BETWEEN MEDIA MODES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications in a wireless audio system. A first wireless device generates a first media stream and a second media stream associated with different media modes, buffers them independently with different latency time values, and transmits a mixed media stream to a second wireless device.

  • Explanation:

- A first wireless device creates two media streams with different media modes. - Each media stream is buffered independently with specific latency time values. - The buffered media streams are mixed and transmitted to a second wireless device.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in: - Wireless audio systems - Multi-stream media transmission - Real-time audio mixing

Problems Solved

This technology addresses: - Latency issues in wireless audio transmission - Simultaneous playback of multiple media streams - Seamless switching between different media modes

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include: - Improved audio streaming quality - Enhanced user experience with multiple media modes - Efficient utilization of wireless communication bandwidth

Potential Commercial Applications

A potential commercial application for this technology could be: - Audio streaming services - Wireless speaker systems - Gaming headsets with multiple audio modes

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be: - Existing wireless audio systems with single media stream transmission

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle potential interference in wireless communication?

This technology may utilize error correction techniques or frequency hopping to mitigate interference issues.

What impact does the latency adjustment have on the overall audio quality?

The latency adjustment may affect synchronization between the media streams and could potentially impact the overall audio quality.


Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. in a wireless audio system, a first wireless device may generate a first media stream associated with a first media mode and a second media stream associated with a second media mode, buffer the first media stream in accordance with a first latency time value for adjusting a first latency time of the first media stream and buffering the second audio stream, independently from the first media stream, in accordance with a second latency time value for adjusting a second latency time of the second media stream, and transmit a mixed media stream including the buffered first media stream mixed with the buffered second media stream to a second wireless device.
