  • Patent number: 11477566
    Abstract: A headphone ear cup holds the transducer. This patent focuses on applying tone wood porting theory to the headphone cup. Simply put, tone wood theory states that certain woods provide a tonality to the music. The practice of speaker porting has been in use for many years to extend the bass response of a speaker. By combining tone woods with porting, a more musical presentation created than by using a polymer or metal cup.

  • Publication number: 20220327170
    Abstract: The present invention relates to systems for communicating data. In particular, systems for communicating data to and from mobile devices are described. One system involves the use of a server to store the association between a shortcode and the data. A user device can be used to transmit the shortcode to a second user device. The second user device can then access the association at the server to access the data. The shortcode is transmitted via an audibly unique signal between the two devices. Further devices, systems, and methods for redeeming vouchers, transferring money, unlocking content on a device, and authenticating transactions all using audio are also disclosed. A method for managing data communication on a mobile device is further disclosed. In addition, a system for asynchronous transmission of the data is disclosed by use of reserving a shortcode at a server before the shortcode is associated with data.

  • Publication number: 20220253524
    Abstract: A behavioral monitor executing in user space generates a plurality of filters corresponding to a plurality of processes executing in the user space. A first process transmits a system call to a corresponding filter of the plurality of filters in kernel space. The first process receives a signal from the corresponding filter. The first process analyzes the arguments submitted in the system call. The first process determines that the arguments may be associated with malicious activity. The first process generates an event and transmitting the event to the behavioral monitor. The behavioral monitor analyzes the event to determine whether the event is associated with malicious activity. The behavioral monitor causes a process group associated with the first process to cease executing and restores a previous version of the at least one file modified by the process group.

  • Publication number: 20220233879
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for a treating dementia or Alzheimer's disease in a subject in need thereof. In one example, combined auditory and visual stimuli having a frequency of about 20 Hz to about 60 Hz, and more specifically about 40 Hz, are non-invasively delivered to the subject to induce synchronized gamma oscillations in at least one brain region of the subject. In particular, pursuant to various treatment and exposure protocols, combined auditory and visual stimulation (as opposed to auditory or visual stimulation alone) promotes a microglia response in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). More generally, combined auditory and visual stimulation induces an extended microglia clustering response in the auditory cortex, the visual cortex, and the mPFC.
