Abstract: An acoustic face mask reduces the distortion and muffling of speech sounds by a face mask wall. The distortion and muffling of speech sounds by a face mask wall may be reduced by reducing the acoustic coupling of the vocal tract and/or nasal cavity to the face mask chamber, which causes a reduction in the intelligibility of the speech. The acoustic coupling of the vocal tract and/or nasal cavity to the face mask chamber may be reduced, for example, by reducing the reflected sound energy caused by the face mask wall. For example, one or more sound absorbing members or acoustically transparent members reduce the reflected sound energy caused by the face mask wall.

Abstract: Ultrasonic signals are used to transmit sounds from a modulated ultrasonic generator to other locations from which the sounds appear to emanate. In particular, an ultrasonic carrier is modulated with an audio signal and demodulated on passage through the atmosphere. The carrier frequencies are substantially higher than those of prior systems, e.g., at least 60 kHz, and the modulation products thus have frequencies which are well above the audible range of humans; as a result, these signals are likely harmless to individuals who are within the ultrasonic fields of the system. The signals may be steered to moving locations, and various measures are taken to minimize distortion and maximize efficiency.

Abstract: A dual-frequency coaxial earphone has a shared magnet, which is interposed between a top board of a outer yoke and an outer disk of a inner yoke, wherein the outer yoke and the inner yoke each has a different polarity. A low-frequency voice coil of a low-frequency speaker part extends axially into and between an annular wall of the outer yoke and the outer disk of the inner yoke.
