Abstract: A method of detecting snoring includes: at a first smart mobile device: receiving a first audio signal from a microphone of the first smart mobile device; determining that the first audio signal includes characteristics of snoring; and in response to a determination that the first audio signal includes characteristics of snoring: transmitting a signal to an external alert unit.

Abstract: A portable headset device worn in an as-used position on the head of a user, which has an RF Receiver, configured to receive media in the form of electronic audio and video RF transmission, from local TV and Satellite broadcasts, and communicate an audio feed to speakers on the headset and concurrently communicate a video feed to an electronic device having a display for a concurrent viewing a depiction of the video feed relating to the audio feed being listened to on speakers of said headset.

Abstract: An audio device is provided that is in electrical communication with a magnetic coil for the purpose of increasing magnetic field emissions generated by the device. The magnetic coil may be disposed on a flexible substrate in multi-turn and multi-layer format or disposed on a foldable flexible substrate in multi-turn and multi-layer format. Additionally, the magnetic coil may be disposed on the device's printed circuit board or the coil may be a freestanding, substrate-free coil assembly. The magnetic coil may be placed and secured in various locations within the device to maximize magnetic field emissions and minimize problems related to space limitations. The increased magnetic field results in a device that is hearing-aid compatible as defined by the Federal Communications Commission.
