  • Patent number: 10931919
    Abstract: A video conference system, a video conference apparatus and a video conference method are provided. The video conference system includes a video conference apparatus and a display apparatus. The video conference apparatus includes an image detection device, a sound source detection device, and a processor. The image detection device obtains a conference image of a conference space. When the sound source detection device detects a sound generated by a sound source in the conference space, the sound source detection device outputs a positioning signal. The processor receives the positioning signal, and determines whether a real face image exists in a sub-image block of the conference image corresponding to the sound source according to the positioning signal to output the image signal. The display apparatus displays a close-up conference image including the real face image according to the image signal.

  • Patent number: 8280540
    Abstract: A multimedia playing system includes an audio outputting device and a multimedia player. The audio outputting device includes a connecting plug and a distance detector. The distance detector generates a distance detecting signal if the distance detector detects the presence of a nearby object. The multimedia player is communicated with the audio outputting device through the connecting plug so as to transmit an output audio signal to the audio outputting device. The distance detecting signal is transmitted to the multimedia player through the connecting plug. The multimedia player generates a prompt event to the audio outputting device if the time duration of continuously receiving the distance detecting signal exceeds a time threshold.

  • Publication number: 20090285404
    Abstract: An acoustic calibration sound system includes a coordinate position detecting device and a host. The coordinate position detecting device is used for detecting a position of a listener in a space plane and issuing a corresponding position signal. The host outputs an audio signal. The host has an acoustic characteristic parameter matrix containing multiple acoustic characteristic parameters related to multiple positions in the space plane. The host selects a corresponding acoustic characteristic parameter in response to the position signal. According to the selected acoustic characteristic parameter, the host adjusts the audio signal.

  • Publication number: 20090196032
    Abstract: The invention discloses an illuminated sign display assembly including a transparent substrate, a multilayer circuit structure, a light reflecting casing, and at least one light emitting unit. The multilayer circuit structure is disposed on the transparent substrate, and a hollow portion is formed on the multilayer circuit structure. The light reflecting casing is fixed on the transparent substrate by a welding process and covers the hollow portion of the multilayer circuit structure. The light emitting unit is disposed on the transparent substrate and located in the light reflecting casing. The light reflecting unit is electrically connected to the multilayer circuit structure. Once the multilayer circuit structure is powered on, the light emitted by the light emitting unit will be reflected by the light reflecting casing and then passes through the hollow portion of the multilayer circuit structure and the transparent substrate, so as to form an illuminated sign.
