Publication number: 20230069230Abstract: In the present disclosure a method is proposed for switching from a first Bluetooth audio source to a second Bluetooth audio source in a user experience friendly manner, e.g. reducing latency. The method is performed by an audio rendering system comprising a primary wireless speaker and a secondary wireless speaker. The audio rendering system receives a first audio stream from the first audio source by using a first audio topology comprising a first set of wireless links. Upon receiving a request to switch to a second audio stream using a second audio topology, a second set of wireless links is established; and, the reception of the second audio stream starts while maintaining the audio rendering system and the first audio source connected by a wireless link of the first set of wireless links. The wireless speaker(s) can be a wireless earbud, a bookshelf speaker, a floor speaker, an outdoor speaker, a subwoofer, a headset speaker.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2021Publication date: March 2, 2023Applicant: Google LLCInventors: Thomas Girardier, Florian Denis
