  • Publication number: 20240147183
    Abstract: Techniques and devices are described for generating modified audio signals. The techniques include receiving an audio signal at a device, tracking a movement of the device, generating a first modified audio signal to spatialize the audio signal, generating a second modified audio signal to spatialize the audio signal, causing the first modified audio signal to be rendered using a first speaker of the device, and causing the second modified audio signal to be rendered using a second speaker of the device. In some cases, the first modified audio signal is generated using a first head-related transfer function (HRTF) and the movement of the device, and the second modified audio signal is generated using a second HRTF and the movement of the device, where the second HRTF is different from the first HRTF. Numerous variations and configurations will be apparent in view of this disclosure.

  • Publication number: 20020100849
    Abstract: An attachment device is presented that is designed to be mounted onto a pole or other lengthy object. The device has two major components: a pole mounting portion attached to a spool mounting portion. By mounting the device onto the pole, the reach of a user is extended such that the user need not mount a ladder when mounting the light strings onto the building or other structure. The spool mounting section is designed to removably and rotationally receive an ornamental light string, ready to distribute stored ornamental light strings.
