AUTOMATIC VOLUME CONTROL FOR A HEARING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240235510 titled 'AUTOMATIC VOLUME CONTROL FOR A HEARING DEVICE
The abstract describes a system with audio processing circuitry that can detect the strength of a chat component and a game component in audio signals, adjusting the volume setting accordingly. The processing includes measuring the strength of a vocal-band signal component common to both left and right channel signals.
- Audio processing circuitry detects strength of chat and game components in audio signals
- Volume setting is automatically controlled based on the detected strengths
- Combined game and chat audio signals may have left and right channel signals
- Processing includes measuring strength of a vocal-band signal component common to both channels
- The system aims to optimize audio output for chat and game components
Potential Applications: - Gaming headsets - Virtual reality systems - Online communication platforms
