Patent number: 11943217Abstract: A target device is associated with a source device. A system includes a target device that enters an association mode, obtains an identification code, and broadcasts the identification code. A source device receives the broadcast, obtains authorization to associate with the target device, and provides a message to an association server. The association server receives the message and associates the target device and the source device in response thereto.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Spotify ABInventors: Jimmy Wahlberg, Nicklas Söderlind

Patent number: 11863147Abstract: An example system for playing media content with a media playback device in a vehicle can be programmed to obtain a sound measurement indicative of a sound level associated with playback of the media content by the media playback device in the vehicle. The example system also can determine a deviation in an expected sound level based upon the sound measurement. Finally, the system can modify playback of the media content by the media playback device (110) based upon the deviation.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2022Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Spotify ABInventors: Jimmy Wahlberg, Thorbiörn Fritzon

Publication number: 20230106825Abstract: Technology for generating, reading, and using machine-readable codes is disclosed. There is a method, performed by an image capture device, for reading and using the codes. The method includes obtaining an image, identifying an area in the image having a machine-readable code. The method also includes, within the image area, finding a predefined start marker defining a start point and a predefined stop marker defining a stop point, an axis being defined there between. A plurality of axis points can be defined along the axis. For each axis point, a first distance within the image area to a mark is determined. The distance can be measured from the axis point in a first direction which is orthogonal to the axis. The first distances can be converted to a binary code using Gray code such that each first distance encodes at least one bit of data in the code.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2022Publication date: April 6, 2023Applicant: Spotify ABInventors: Keenan CASSIDY, Damian FERRAI, Ludvig STRIGEUS, Mattias SVALA, Nicklas SÖDERLIND, Jimmy WAHLBERG

Publication number: 20230019099Abstract: A system is provided for streaming media content in a vehicle. The system includes a personal media streaming appliance system configured to connect to a media delivery system and receive media content from the media delivery system at least via a cellular network. The media delivery system is configured to link a user media streaming account with a particular personal media streaming appliance to provide personalized media content to the appliance. Media contexts are assigned to multiple preset settings automatically so that the personal media streaming appliance system is configured to output personalized media content upon first use.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2022Publication date: January 19, 2023Applicant: Spotify ABInventors: Nicklas Söderlind, Jimmy Wahlberg
