Patent number: 11863147Abstract: An example system for playing media content with a media playback device in a vehicle can be programmed to obtain a sound measurement indicative of a sound level associated with playback of the media content by the media playback device in the vehicle. The example system also can determine a deviation in an expected sound level based upon the sound measurement. Finally, the system can modify playback of the media content by the media playback device (110) based upon the deviation.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2022Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Spotify ABInventors: Jimmy Wahlberg, Thorbiörn Fritzon

Publication number: 20220075858Abstract: A server has a pool data store that stores ambient sound recordings for matching. A match engine finds matches between ambient sound recordings from devices in the pool data store. The matching ambient sound recordings and their respective devices are then analyzed to determine which device is a source device that provides credentials and which device is a target device that receives credentials. The server then obtains or generates credentials associated with the source device and provides the credentials to the target device. The target device accesses content or services of an account using the credentials.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Inventors: Thorbiörn Fritzon, Richard Mitic
