Patent number: 9898248Abstract: A method and a device are provided for modifying audio signals in accordance with hearing capabilities of an individual who is listening to audio signals played by a music player. The method comprises the steps of: providing a music player operative to play audio signals, wherein the music player comprises a processor configured to modify audio signals that are about to be played, by taking into account the hearing capabilities of the individual; providing information that relates to the hearing capabilities of the individual; forwarding the information that relates to the hearing capabilities of the individual, from an electronic device to the music player; and using the music player processor to modify audio signals when the individual is listening to audio signals being played by the music player, wherein the audio signals are modified before they are played by taking into account the individual's hearing capabilities.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2017Date of Patent: February 20, 2018Assignee: MEQ INC.Inventors: Ofer NIssim Raz, Danny Aronson

Patent number: 8983710Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for determining a value of an event performance variable associated with a driving event, and/or for determining a session performance variable associated with at least one driving session. The method comprising: identifying a driving event which occurred during a driving session of a vehicle; providing a plurality of indicators associated with such a driving event; retrieving respective values for each of the plurality of indicators from one or more sensors located in the vehicle being driven; providing a mathematical relationship that represents the event performance variable as a function of the plurality of indicators, wherein the mathematical relationship represents an event of the type characterizing the identified driving event; and determining value of the event performance variable based on the mathematical relationship provided, by applying the values retrieved for each of the plurality of indicators.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2012Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Greenroad Driving Technologies Ltd.Inventors: Ofer Nissim Raz, Oren Musicant

Patent number: 8896465Abstract: A method is described for providing an advanced indication to a driver that a road segment which will require his attention is located along his route. The method comprising: a) detecting the vehicle's current location and identifying a road segment that the driver is about to reach; b) for the identified road segment, retrieving values of driving performance parameters associated therewith; c) evaluating whether any of the retrieved values exceeds a pre-defined threshold, and based on that evaluation, determining whether the identified road segment is a low service level segment and thus would require the driver's attention; and d) providing the driver with an advanced indication indicating the road segment which has been determined as being a segment of a low service level for the driver.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2012Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: Greenroad Driving Technologies Ltd.Inventors: Ofer Nissim Raz, Oren Musicant
