Abstract: In general, this disclosure describes various aspects of the techniques directed to an adaptive audio system for occupant aware vehicles. A device configured to reproduce a soundfield based on audio data within a vehicle may implement the techniques. The device may comprise a memory configured to store the audio data, and processing circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry may be configured to obtain, from an occupant monitoring system, a state of an occupant residing within a cabin of the vehicle, modify, based on the state of the occupant residing within the cabin of the vehicle, playback of the audio data within at least a portion of the cabin of the vehicle to obtain modified playback data for the audio data, and reproduce, based on the modified playback data, the soundfield.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide for a system and method for storing data in a flash memory device that has a code bank and a data bank. The method includes writing data to the data bank under control of a flash driver in the code bank when sufficient space is expected to exist in the data bank. Otherwise, the method includes writing data to the code bank under control of a flash driver in a storage device that is external to the flash memory device.

Abstract: To prevent errors in a PC pursuant to downloading new software to a wireless communication device through a USB port, when it is time to reset the wireless communication device, the registers in its processor that are associated with the USB are not reset, and the USB transceiver is maintained on. Also, the USB-related values in RAM are maintained during the reset, and flash memory is maintained in a normal mode. In this way, the wireless communication device does not appear to the PC to abruptly sever the connection at the USB port upon download completion, which might otherwise cause errors in applications running on the PC.
