  • Patent number: 11778360
    Abstract: The present invention provide a method and system of audio sharing aimed to revolutionize the way people listen and share music and to give multiple uses to a wireless headphone referred to as HEDphone. A communication protocol referred to as HEDtech protocol is used in a HED system to allow users to share music amongst a plurality of HEDphones while using a single audio source. A wireless connection is established between the HEDphone and a mobile device including an audio source while simultaneously having the capability of allowing other HEDphone users to join wirelessly and listen to the same audio source. A feature of Super Human Hearing (SHH) goes beyond conventional ANR (ambient noise reduction) with additional features that allow the user to control their aural environment by being able to directionally increase or decrease selective frequencies.

  • Patent number: 11631398
    Abstract: A voice aware audio system and a method for a user wearing a headset to be aware of an outer sound environment while listening to music or any other audio source. An adjustable sound awareness zone gives the user the flexibility to avoid hearing far distant voices. The outer sound can be analyzed in a frequency domain to select an oscillating frequency candidate and in a time domain to determine if the oscillating frequency candidate is the signal of interest. If the signal directed to the outer sound is determined to be a signal of interest the outer sound is mixed with audio from the audio source.

  • Patent number: 11580986
    Abstract: Obtaining configuration audio data including voice information for a plurality of meeting participants. Generating localization information indicating a respective location for each meeting participant. Generating a respective voiceprint for each meeting participant. Obtaining meeting audio data. Identifying a first meeting participant and a second meeting participant. Linking a first meeting participant identifier of the first meeting participant with a first segment of the meeting audio data. Linking a second meeting participant identifier of the second meeting participant with a second segment of the meeting audio data. Generating a GUI indicating the respective locations of the first and second meeting participants, and the GUI indicating a first transcription of the first segment and a second transcription of the second segment. The first transcription is associated with the first meeting participant in the GUI, and the second transcription is associated with the second meeting participant in the GUI.
