Publication number: 20220417640Abstract: Disclosed is a headset for audio communication, a software application for an electronic device associated with a headset, and a method for controlling a headset feature. The headset is configured to be worn by a user. The headset comprises a speaker for sound transmission into the user's ear, a transceiver or a radio communication unit for communication with an external device, a connection to a location-based service software, the location-based service software is configured for controlling at least one headset feature based on location data of the headset, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured for enabling the location-based service software to detect if the current location data of the headset indicates a change in location data corresponding to a certain change criterion and changing the at least one headset feature, if a change criterion associated with the change in location data is satisfied.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2020Publication date: December 29, 2022Inventor: Kevin A.

Patent number: 11388498Abstract: A hearing device comprising a first earphone with a first driver unit and a second earphone comprising a second driver unit. The headset further comprises a first ambient microphone adapted for converting ambient noise to an ambient input signal. A first electric circuitry is adapted for receiving the first ambient input sound signal from the ambient microphone and in an ambient mode outputting a first ambient output sound signal of a certain level to the first driver unit. An activation circuit is adapted to activate and deactivate the ambient mode for the hearing device. In the ambient mode, the ambient output sound signal is sent to the first driver unit and not the second driver unit.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2020Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: GN Audio A/SInventors: Kevin A. Batson, David M. Geno, Martin E. Granville, Thomas F. Terrien, Jr.

Patent number: 9729958Abstract: A headset providing audio input and output for a mobile device includes a microphone and speaker. An RF transceiver performs wireless communication with the mobile device. One or more buttons are configured for push operations to control operation of the headset, the mobile device, or both. A processor is configured to process a signal input from the microphone and output the processed signal to the RF transceiver, process a signal received from the RF transceiver and output the processed signal to the speaker, and process a signal input according to the push operations of the one or more buttons. At least one of the buttons is configurable to actuate a selected function. A memory associated with the processor stores program instructions for executing a plurality of functions, wherein the selected plurality of function is selected in response to user input via a user interface on the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2016Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: GN Audio A/SInventors: David A.
