AUDIO SYSTEM WITH DYNAMIC AUDIO SETTING ADJUSTMENT FEATURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240259752 titled 'AUDIO SYSTEM WITH DYNAMIC AUDIO SETTING ADJUSTMENT FEATURE

The abstract describes a method for an audio system to detect the position of a user in a listening area, identify a reference position that matches the user's position, select audio settings based on the reference position, and configure the audio system accordingly.

  • Detect the position of a user within a listening area.
  • Identify a reference position that closely matches the user's position from multiple candidate positions.
  • Select a set of audio settings corresponding to the identified reference position.
  • Configure the audio system based on the selected audio settings.

Original Abstract Submitted

in one aspect, an example method for use in connection with an audio system that is configured to present audio within a listening area includes (i) detecting, by a computing system, a position of a user located within the listening area; (ii) using, by the computing system, at least the detected position of the user to identify, from among multiple candidate reference positons, a reference positon that most closely matches the detected position of the user; (iii) using, by the computing system, at least the identified reference position as a basis to select a set of audio settings that corresponds to the identified reference position; and (iv) configuring, by the computing system, the audio system based on the selected set of audio settings.
