Patent number: 12081949Abstract: Systems and methods for loudspeaker layout mapping in accordance with embodiments of the invention are illustrated. In many embodiments, loudspeakers are able to generate tones which are used by other loudspeakers to generate impulse responses. The impulse responses and the angles at which the tones were received can be used to determine the relative locations and orientations of the loudspeakers. In various embodiments, obstacles which obstruct the path of the tone can be identified and accounted for.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2022Date of Patent: September 3, 2024Assignee: SYNG, Inc.Inventors: Lasse Vetter, Matthias Kronlachner, Ryan Mihelich, Christos Kyriakakis

Patent number: 8121336Abstract: A directional loudspeaker provides an enhanced listening environment by producing an indirect sound field of greater amplitude than that of the direct sound field. The directional loudspeaker includes loudspeaker elements positioned to provide a listener located below the loudspeaker elements with an impression of sound spaciousness in a vehicle environment. The loudspeaker elements may include baffles or acoustic lenses to deflect the indirect field away from the path to the listener position. The loudspeaker may also be operated with windows open by channeling the indirect sound field through an acoustic waveguide and deflector to the listener. A sound processor is also provided to accept a sound input, create an indirect and direct sound field, output the sound fields to loudspeaker elements, and also may provide electronic enhancement effects such as multi-channel sound or sound parameter adjustment.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2007Date of Patent: February 21, 2012Assignee: Harman International Industries, IncorporatedInventors: Steven W.

Publication number: 20070223777Abstract: A magnet structure for use with a loudspeaker may have an interlocking mechanism. The magnet structure may include a magnet, a shell pot and a core cap. The shell pot may contain the magnet in its hollow interior. The magnet may be a single magnet or double magnets. The core cap has two surfaces. For a single magnet, one surface of the core cap may face a magnet. For double magnets, the core cap may be vertically disposed between the two magnets. The magnet, the core cap and the shell pot may interlock with one another such that a position of the magnet relative to the core cap and the shell pot may be rigidly preserved. The magnet may be configured to be, for example, overlapped, inserted, staked and/or engaged with at least one of the shell pot or the core cap.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2006Publication date: September 27, 2007Inventors: Ryan Mihelich, Jason Semmler, John Steere
