Abstract: Techniques for generating audio for a speaker system include receiving an audio input signal and a first location associated with the audio input signal; generating a low-frequency output based on the audio input signal; generating a plurality of high-frequency outputs based on the audio input signal, the first location, and a plurality of directions at which the plurality of speaker drivers emit audio; generating a plurality of middle-frequency outputs based on the audio input signal that are used to form one or more beam patterns for rendering a sound at the first location; and transmitting the low-frequency output, the plurality of high-frequency outputs, and the plurality of middle-frequency outputs to the plurality of speaker drivers of the speaker, wherein the plurality of speaker drivers emit audio that corresponds to the low-frequency output, the plurality of high-frequency outputs, and the plurality of middle-frequency outputs.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for generating audio for a speaker system. The technique includes receiving an audio input signal, a first location associated with the audio input signal, a first geometric model of the speaker system, and a second geometric model of one or more surfaces in proximity to the speaker system. The technique also includes generating a plurality of output signals for a plurality of speaker drivers in the speaker system based on the audio input signal, the first location, and the first and second geometric models. The technique further includes transmitting the plurality of output signals to the plurality of speaker drivers, wherein the plurality of speaker drivers emit audio that corresponds to the plurality of output signals, the emitted audio rendering a sound corresponding to the audio input signal at the first location.

Abstract: An enrichment device for dispensing edible food products to an animal, and including the capability to provide the animals meal with said device. The device includes a body, an upper surface which preferably is removable from the body, a cavity, at least one passageway in the upper surface, the passageway communicating with the cavity to allow food to pass from the upper surface into the cavity. The body has a wall forming the cavity, and the wall has one or more openings therein to allow for food to pass from the cavity outside of the device where it may be consumed by the animal. The device bottom is configured to provide a rocking motion when the device is disrupted.
