An acoustic panel for use in an interior space is disclosed along with a system and method for using two or more of such panels to improve the acoustics of the interior space. Each acoustic panel comprises a substrate and a plurality of nodules affixed to the substrate wherein each nodule has a width and a substantially right triangular shape across the entire width with a first leg of the right triangular shape substantially perpendicular to the substrate, a base of the right triangular shape substantially parallel to the substrate and a hypotenuse, the first leg of each nodule having a height that is substantially less than a length of a quarter wave formed in the interior space by a lower frequency signal. For any one particular acoustic panel, the nodules are oriented such that their hypotenuse slopes right, left, down or up as determined for each nodule by a predetermined, generally desired direction for redirecting the sound while providing fractal-chaotic differentiality in the portion of the sound waves that are reflected by the acoustic panel.

An interior component of a vehicle comprises a carrier having a front face directed toward a passenger compartment of the vehicle and an opposite rear face; a speaker including an at least partially transparent diaphragm and a transducer coupled to the diaphragm. Movement of the transducer causes vibration of the diaphragm to generate sound by vibration of the diaphragm, the diaphragm having a front face directed towards the passenger compartment and an opposite rear face. The carrier provides a support along at least part of the periphery of the diaphragm where the diaphragm is attached to the carrier where the front face and the rear face of the diaphragm are free of the carrier across a part of the diaphragm surface so that the diaphragm is suspended in the carrier of the interior component.

This device consists of a hollow triangular pyramid shaped speaker mounting system that is divided into three cells. The device mounts into a corner of a structural space at the convergence of three plane surfaces such as two adjacent walls and the ceiling or the floor. The device would divide the acoustical waves from a speaker into three segments where diffusers would channel them into the pyramid toward the apex. A wave reverser would send the waves back toward the open base of the pyramid. When the three sound waves exit the device, they would merge and continue expanding along each of the three plane surfaces in the hosting structural space. Each segment of the sound waves would follow a path that takes the form of a folded horn. That would provide for a very large expansion of the sound waves coming from this device.

An intracorporeal pressure shock wave includes an expandable pressure shock wave reflector at the distal end of an intracorporeal catheter to direct shock waves from a shock wave generator within a human or animal blood vessel or body lumen.

A sound enhancing device for improving voice reception of a smartphone microphone is attachable to the rear surface of a smartphone opposite the surface of the smartphone having a display. The device has a deflector in a sliding engagement within a cavity of a housing moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position. A reflective curved area positioned on a first surface of the deflector captures and reflects sound waves from the voice of a user toward a microphone of the smartphone.

An audio enhancing apparatus for electronic media devices including a support base having a rectangular rear side, an open front side, an open top side, a bottom side perpendicularly disposed to the rear side, and a pair of sidewalls. Each of the pair of sidewalls has a right triangulated bottom portion and an elongated rectangular top portion extended upwards from the bottom portion. Each of a right bracket and a left bracket of a pair of brackets is attached to the top portion of each of a right sidewall and a left sidewall, respectively, of the pair of sidewalls. The pair of brackets is configured to removably secure a bottom section of a portable electronic device within the support base.
