Publication number: 20210306735Abstract: Various implementations include headphone systems configured to adapt to changes in user environment. In some particular cases, a headphone system includes at least one headphone including an acoustic transducer having a sound-radiating surface for providing an audio output; a sensor system configured to detect an environmental condition proximate the at least one headphone; and a control system coupled with the at least one headphone and the sensor system, the control system configured to: receive data about the environmental condition from the sensor system; and modify the audio output at the at least one headphone in response to a change in the environmental condition, wherein the audio output includes a continuous audio output provided across a transition between environmental conditions and is configured to vary with the change in the environmental condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2021Publication date: September 30, 2021Applicant: Bose CorporationInventors: Todd Richard Reily, Keith Dana Martin, Ruben M. Carbonell, Elio Dante Querze, Conor William Sheehan, Amanda Whitt, Saurabh Khanwalkar

Patent number: 10657965Abstract: Various implementations include audio systems for controlling audio feedback to user requests. In some particular cases, a headphone system includes at least one headphone including an acoustic transducer having a sound-radiating surface for providing an audio output; at least one microphone for receiving an audio input from a user; and a control system including a recommendation engine, the control system coupled with the at least one headphone and the at least one microphone, the recommendation engine configured to: analyze the audio input for a non-specific request from the user; and provide an audio sample to the user along with a prompt for feedback about the audio sample in response to the non-specific request.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2018Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: BOSE CORPORATIONInventors: Todd Richard Reily, Keith Dana Martin, Christine M. Hostage, Lya Batlle-Rafferty, Conor William Sheehan, Joseph M. Geiger, Elio Dante Querze, Ruben M. Carbonell, Curtis Bard, Saurabh Khanwalkar
