Abstract: A link includes an arm having first and second recess/apertures, receiving first and second bearings, respectively. The bearings are attachable to structures, allowing movement of one structure independently of the other. The recess/aperture has an inward facing surface, and the bearing has an outward facing surface, the inward and outward facing surfaces being substantially arcuate. An isolator includes a base and shell connected to but extending from the base. The shell has an aperture opposite the base. A support structure has one end in the shell. The connecting arm has a component thereon outside the shell whereby the connecting arm connects to a structure. Links are pivotally connected at one end to the shell and pivotally connected at the other end to the connecting arm. The connection between each link and the connecting arm is closer to the base than the connection between each link and the shell.

Abstract: A system for transmitting an audio signal in a vehicle includes a stabilizer located at a source position in the vehicle. At least one speaker is operatively connected to the stabilizer. The speaker is adapted to transmit an audio signal to a target position for at least partially supporting a spatial audio representation. The target position and the source position are independently movable. The stabilizer is adapted to direct the audio signal such that a trajectory between the target position and the source position is maintained regardless of respective motion of the target position and the source position. The trajectory includes a first segment between the source position and a deflecting surface and a second segment between the deflecting surface and the target position.

Abstract: A wearable device can provide an audio module that is operable to provide audio output from a distance away from the ears of the user. For example, the wearable device can be worn on clothing of the user and direct audio waves to the ears of the user. Such audio waves can be focused by a parametric array of speakers that limit audibility by others. Thus, the privacy of the audio directed to the user can be maintained without requiring the user to wear audio headsets on, over, or in the ears of the user. The wearable device can further include microphones and/or connections to other devices that facilitate calibration of the audio module of the wearable device. The wearable device can further include user sensors that are configured to detect, measure, and/or track one or more properties of the user.

Abstract: A sound bar having a mounting assembly configured to pivotally secure the bar. The sound bar includes an elongated, at least partially hollow, housing. The housing has a body extending between two opposing ends. A speaker array is positioned in the body. At least one speaker is positioned in at least one end of the bar. The end speaker(s) are preferably bass speakers in fluid communication with the hollow housing. A grill is preferably positioned over at least one of the housing ends. The grill preferably has a center hub affixed to an outer rim by spokes defining open spaces in the grill to facilitate the emission of sound. A mount is attached to the sound bar to secure the bar to a structure while allowing the bar to pivot along its longitudinal axis. Preferably, the mount is secured to the center hub of the grill.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an endpoint mixing product having a control module and a speaker system. The speaker system includes speakers in which each speaker is with a 3D coordinate. The speakers communicate with the control module respectively. The control module is configured to deliver sound fragments to the speakers. The sound fragments contain 3D coordinates and correspond to the speakers respectively through the 3D coordinates. The speakers are configured to receive and play the corresponding sound fragments respectively to form an endpoint mixing sound.

Abstract: A portable public address (PA) speaker comprises an enclosure constructed and arranged for positioning at a first position having a vertical orientation to output audio shaped for a first acoustic coverage area, a second position having an angular orientation to output audio shaped for a second acoustic coverage area, and a third position having a horizontal orientation to output audio shaped for a third acoustic coverage area. The weight of the speaker rests on a bottom surface of a base when in the first position having the vertical orientation or the second position having the angular orientation. The weight of the speaker rests on a side surface when in the third position having the horizontal orientation.
