  • Publication number: 20240129667
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for automatic processing state control of a microphone of a listening device. A signal is received. A first event is detected based on an analysis of the signal. A determination to enable processing of audio captured by a microphone of a listening device is made based at least on the detected first event. Responsive to said determination, a first command is transmitted to the listening device. The first command includes instructions to enable processing of the audio captured by the microphone. In a further aspect, a determination to cease processing of audio captured by the microphone is made based on a detected second event. Responsive to the determination to cease processing, a second command is transmitted to the listening device to cease processing audio captured by the microphone.

  • Patent number: 10805753
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein reduce latency and improve packet delivery when transmitting audio packets from a source device to one or more sink devices. For example, one or more operating modes that introduce latency when transmitting packets may be disabled at the source device and/or sink device(s). Additionally, certain operational behavior of the source device and/or sink device(s) may be changed based on the quality of the channel used to transmit audio packets to further improve the latency. Such operational behavior includes changing the jitter buffer size of the sink device(s), the number of retry attempts performed by the source device when re-transmitting packets that have been lost, and changing the channel used to transmit the audio packets. Embodiments described herein further enable the synchronization of playback between the sink devices to ensure that sink devices playback audio packets in a synchronized fashion.
