Abstract: A portable audio speaker system is disclosed herein. In one or more embodiments, the portable audio speaker system includes at least one speaker assembly including a housing; a speaker element disposed inside of the housing; a charging interface disposed on the housing and configured to receive electrical power from an external source to charge an internal power supply of the portable audio speaker system; and a clip member coupled to the housing, the clip member and the housing together forming a clipping device. The clipping device allows the housing to be coupled to, and decoupled from, an edge of an item. In one or more further embodiments, the portable audio speaker system includes a control button configured to control a plurality of functions of the at least one speaker assembly and/or a spring element coupling the clip member to the housing.

Abstract: A wearable holder device is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the wearable holder device includes at least one holder configured to hold an object, the at least one holder including an elastic body possessing stretchability and configured for securement of an electronic device; a plurality of resilient loop components, each of the plurality of resilient loop components extending from the elastic body and configured to engage with a respective corner of the electronic device; and an adjustable member comprising a passive material, the passive material forming a loop with one end coupled to the at least one holder such that the adjustable member forms a limb loop capable of inserting part or all of a hand of a user, and at least one terminus of the adjustable member is equipped with a mechanism for length modulation, thereby facilitating the alteration to fit the limb loop around different sized limbs.

Abstract: An electronic device with multiple modes of attachment is disclosed herein. In one or more embodiments, the electronic device includes a device assembly having a housing; a clip member coupled to the housing; a first magneto coupler coupled to the housing; and a removable member having a second magneto coupler. The second magneto coupler of the removable member is capable of being magnetically coupled to the first magneto coupler that is coupled to the housing, so the magnetic coupling allows the housing to be attached to a non-edge portion of a non-metallic and/or non-magnetic item when the item is placed between the first magneto coupler and the removable member. The clip member allows the housing to be attached to, and detached from, an edge of a non-metallic and/or non-magnetic item when the removable member is magnetically coupled to the housing, and there is no item between the first magneto coupler and removable member.

Abstract: Generating a playlist may include designating a seed track in an audio library; identifying audio tracks in the audio library having constructs that are within a range of a corresponding construct of the seed track, where the constructs for the audio tracks are derived from frequency representations of the audio tracks, and the corresponding construct for the seed track is derived from a frequency representation of the seed track; and generating the playlist using at least some of the audio tracks that were identified.

Abstract: An illuminated vest comprises an enclosure including a light-emitting diode and control electronics that control the light emitting diode. Coupled to the enclosure is a belt made of passive material. A limb loop is created by an optical fiber structure that includes a first end and a second end. The light-emitting diode is optically coupled to the first end of the fiber optic structure. The optical fiber structure is also independent of passive material, such that the optical fiber structure forms a structure for the vest.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, are provided for using audio features to classify audio for information retrieval. In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods that include the actions of generating a collection of auditory images, each auditory image being generated from respective audio files according to an auditory model; extracting sparse features from each auditory image in the collection to generate a sparse feature vector representing the corresponding audio file; and ranking the audio files in response to a query including one or more words using the sparse feature vectors and a matching function relating sparse feature vectors to words in the query.

Abstract: A portable GPS/radio unit communicates over a wireless radio network with at least one other unit which is transmitting radio signals over the network indicative of that unit's location. The GPS/radio unit comprises a GPS receiver for receiving satellite signals from a plurality of satellites, a radio receiver for receiving the radio signals transmitted by the other unit, a processor for calculating the unit's location as a function of the received satellite signals and for identifying the location of the other unit based on the received radio signals, and a display for indicating the location of the other unit. The display may indicate the respective locations of multiple units and may also display unique identifiers for each of the units. A system and method for indicating the location of one portable GPS/radio unit on the display of another portable GPS/radio unit involves at least two such units communicating with one another over a wireless radio network.
