INDEPENDENT GAME AND CHAT VOLUME CONTROL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240299843 titled 'INDEPENDENT GAME AND CHAT VOLUME CONTROL

The abstract describes a patent application for an audio device that can determine the balance and volume of audio signals, as well as apply virtualization using a head-related transfer function to create a stereo signal for output to left and right speakers.

  • The device includes input controls, mixing circuitry, left and right speakers.
  • Balance and volume of audio signals are determined based on input controls.
  • Virtualization is applied using a head-related transfer function.
  • Stereo signal is generated by combining audio signals based on balance, volume, and virtualization.
  • Left and right channels of the stereo signal are outputted to respective speakers.

Potential Applications: - Audio equipment manufacturing - Entertainment systems - Virtual reality and gaming devices

Problems Solved: - Precise control over audio balance and volume - Enhanced audio experience through virtualization

Benefits: - Improved sound quality - Customizable audio settings - Immersive audio experience

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Audio Control Technology for Enhanced Sound Systems" This technology can be used in high-end audio systems, home theaters, and gaming consoles to provide users with a superior audio experience.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the virtualization process enhance the audio experience?

  - Virtualization creates a more immersive sound environment by simulating natural listening cues.

2. What sets this audio device apart from traditional stereo systems?

  - This device offers advanced control over audio balance, volume, and virtualization, resulting in a more customized listening experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

in an audio device that includes a plurality of input controls, mixing circuitry, a left speaker, and a right speaker, a desired balance, between a first audio signal and a second audio signal, may be determined according to the plurality of input controls. a desired volume, of the first audio signal and the second audio signal, may be determined according to the plurality of input controls. a virtualization, of one or both of the first audio signal and the second audio signal, may be determined according to a head related transfer function. a stereo signal may be generated by combining the first audio signal and the second audio signal according to the desired balance, the desired volume, and the virtualization. a left channel of the stereo signal may be outputted to the left speaker and a right channel of the stereo signal may be outputted to the right speaker.
