Publication number: 20160050484Abstract: A portable system for enhancing communication between at least two users in proximity to each other includes first and second noise-reducing headsets, each headset including an electroacoustic transducer for providing sound to a respective user's ear and a voice microphone for detecting sound of the respective user's voice and providing a microphone input signal. A first electronic device integral to the first headset and in communication with the second headset generates a first side-tone signal based on the microphone input signal from the first headset, generates a first voice output signal based on the microphone input signal from the first headset, combines the first side-tone signal with a first far-end voice signal associated with the second headset to generate a first combined output signal, and provides the first combined output signal to the first headset for output by the first headset's electroacoustic transducer.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2015Publication date: February 18, 2016Applicant: Bose CorporationInventors: Kathleen S. Krisch, Steven H. Isabelle

Publication number: 20140335908Abstract: An apparatus for managing communication between headsets includes a first headset having a microphone, at least one earphone, and a wireless interface for voice and data communication with other headsets. The headset is distinguished from other headsets by a first identification code. The apparatus also includes a controller configured for recognizing a set of identification codes broadcast by the other headsets and causing the first headset to establish communication with headsets having identification codes selected from the set of identification codes.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 9, 2013Publication date: November 13, 2014Applicant: Bose CorporationInventors: Kathleen S.

Patent number: 6110543Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for forming compound films that contain at least three elements. The films are formed on a substrate by directing a gas containing reactant species onto the substrate. The compound film is formed from an interaction between two reactant species. The third element is incorporated into the film as it formed. The third element is different from the other two elements that form the compound film and is hydrogen, deuterium, or oxygen. The presence of the third element enhances the properties of the compound film. At least a portion of the substrate remains within the purview of the plasma discharge while the compound film is formed on the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 1998Date of Patent: August 29, 2000Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Anthony Michael DeSantolo, Kathleen S Krisch, Mary Louise Mandich, Robert Leon Opila, Jr., Marcus Weldon
