Abstract: Conference Systems are commonly used in meeting rooms or plenary halls to support the discussion of a plurality of participants. Such Conference Systems may comprise more than 50 or 100 microphone equipped delegate units, whereby each delegate unit can be assigned to a participant of the discussion. A delegate unit 1 for a Conference System is proposed, the delegate unit comprises a base body 2, a microphone stem body 3 comprising a microphone head 10 and a stem 11, whereby the microphone head 10 is arranged on the stem 11 and whereby the microphone stem body 3 is arranged on the base body 2, whereby the microphone head 10 has a directional microphone characteristic.

Abstract: A high directivity boundary microphone (10) is disclosed, build up of a normal unidirectional microphone element (12) with cardioid-directivity behavior. The microphone element (12) is placed on a holder plate (14), with a membrane (16) of the microphone element (12) facing a plane (18) where a holder (20), comprising the holder plate (14) and a holder feet (22), is placed upon. The holder (20) ensures that the microphone element (12) is aligned at an angle (24) of preferably 35° respective to the plane (18). In this position, the microphone element (12) can detect direct sound (26) in a defined speech area (28A, 28B) as well as delayed sound (30) that is reflected at the plane (18) beneath the microphone element (12). Outside the defined speech area (28A, 28B) the sensitivity is strongly reduced.

Abstract: Loudspeaker apparatus comprise commonly some sort of casings or assemblies, in which one or more single speakers are integrated and which are used to convert electrical signals into sound. A loudspeaker apparatus 1 for radiating sound in a hemisphere is disclosed having a center axis 9, the loudspeaker apparatus 1 comprising: a set of midrange drivers 6a, b, c, d, e, f, whereby the midrange drivers 6a, b, c, d, e, f are controlled and/or arranged in a Bessel configuration and are operable to provide a first acoustic field in the hemisphere, a set of tweeter drivers 7a, b, c, d adapted to provide a second acoustic field in the hemisphere, whereby the first and the second acoustic field are respectively arranged symmetrically, whereby the main sound emitting directions of the single tweeter drivers 7a, b, c, d are angled to the center axis 9.
