  • Patent number: 10349199
    Abstract: An acoustic array system includes a sound field controller and an acoustic transducer array. The sound field controller provides first and second processed signals. The first processed signal is associated with a first acoustic radiation pattern and the second processed signal is associated with a second acoustic radiation pattern. The transducer array receives the first and second processed signals from the sound field controller and produces first and second driver signals for each of the transducers. The first driver signals are based upon the first processed signal and the second driver signals are based upon the second processed signal. The transducer array combines the first and second driver signals for each of the transducers to produce a plurality of combined driver signals, one for each of the transducers, and provides the combined driver signals to the transducers.

  • Patent number: 10228896
    Abstract: Audio network interface devices that are configured to be used with different types of microphones, and analog or digital audio devices. There is a housing that carries at least one set of electrical connectors adapted to be electrically connected to a microphone or audio device. The microphone connector including at least one general purpose input, at least two general purpose outputs and DC power. There is a first network connector that is adapted to provide connection to a data network, and a second network connector that is adapted to provide connection to a different electronic device. A microphone phantom power source is configured to provide phantom power to a microphone that is connected to a set of electrical connectors. A processing system is configured to cause the conversion of input and output signals from/to a microphone or other audio device that is connected to a set of electrical connectors, to/from digital output signals that are provided to the first network connector.
