Patent number: 10631201Abstract: A storage and playback device is capable of being detachably coupled to an output device, such as speakers of an automobile. The device includes a wireless transceiver to receive compressed digital content automatically from a computer system via a wireless local area network based on user defined preferences input into the computer system. The wireless transceiver is communicably coupled to the wireless local area network when the wireless transceiver is a predetermined distance from a wireless local area network access point. The device also includes a decoder and converter to decompress and convert the digital content. The decompressed and converted digital content is sent to be played on the output device.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2018Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: Callahan Cellular L.L.C.Inventors: Craig M. Janik, Nick Kalayjian, Bruce Edwards

Publication number: 20170187764Abstract: A system and method for using a webpad to select a target device which is to receive from a source device a stream of a digital representation of a media. The webpad is used to send a transmission to the source device to cause the source device to route the stream of the digital representation of the media to the target device where the target device decodes and converts the digital representation of the media into analog signals to thereby allow for a reproduction of the media.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2017Publication date: June 29, 2017Inventors: Craig M. Janik, Nick Kalayjian, Bruce Edwards, Josh Ferguson
