BLUETOOTH AUDIO BROADCASTING SYSTEM SUPPORTING BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY AUDIO BROADCASTING OPERATIONS AND CAPABLE OF AVOIDING USER FROM MISSING EXTERNAL ALERT SIGNALS OR SPECIFIC SOUNDS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240292319 titled 'BLUETOOTH AUDIO BROADCASTING SYSTEM SUPPORTING BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY AUDIO BROADCASTING OPERATIONS AND CAPABLE OF AVOIDING USER FROM MISSING EXTERNAL ALERT SIGNALS OR SPECIFIC SOUNDS
The abstract describes a Bluetooth audio broadcasting system that includes an audio broadcasting device, a first Bluetooth member device, and a second Bluetooth member device. The system is designed to broadcast Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) audio packets, which are then parsed by the member devices to acquire predetermined audio data and control audio playback circuits.
- The system includes an audio broadcasting device that broadcasts BLE audio packets.
- A first Bluetooth member device parses the BLE audio packets to acquire audio data and control a first audio playback circuit.
- A second Bluetooth member device also parses the BLE audio packets to acquire audio data and control a second audio playback circuit.
- The system can reduce the volume of the member devices in response to an alert signal or specific ambient sound using a target control command.
Potential Applications: - Wireless audio broadcasting in public spaces - Personalized audio playback in shared environments - Audio notifications in smart home systems
Problems Solved: - Ensuring synchronized audio playback across multiple devices - Managing audio volume levels in response to external stimuli
Benefits: - Enhanced user experience with synchronized audio playback - Improved control over audio volume in dynamic environments
Commercial Applications: Title: Bluetooth Audio Broadcasting System for Public Spaces This technology can be used in airports, train stations, shopping malls, and other public spaces to provide audio information to users in a synchronized and controlled manner.
Prior Art: Research into Bluetooth audio broadcasting systems and synchronized playback technologies can provide insights into similar innovations in the field.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in BLE audio technology, synchronized playback systems, and ambient sound detection for audio devices.
Questions about Bluetooth Audio Broadcasting System: 1. How does the system ensure synchronized audio playback across multiple devices? The system utilizes BLE audio packets and target control commands to instruct member devices to play audio data simultaneously. 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in real-world environments? Implementing this technology may require addressing issues related to signal interference, power consumption, and compatibility with existing audio systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
a bluetooth audio broadcasting system includes: an audio broadcasting device arranged to operably broadcast ble (bluetooth low energy) audio packets; a first bluetooth member device arranged to operably parse the ble audio packets to acquire a predetermined audio data and to operably control a first audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data; and a second bluetooth member device arranged to operably parse the ble audio packets to acquire the predetermined audio data and to operably control a second audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data. when the first or second bluetooth member device receives an alert signal, or when a specific ambient sound occurs in the surrounding environment of the first or second bluetooth member device, the audio broadcasting device utilizes a target control command to instruct the first and second bluetooth member devices to synchronously reduce their volume to be lower than a predetermined threshold.
