Provided is a speaker driver. The speaker driver includes a pair of yoke members that is arranged to face each other so as to have empty spaces provided on inner sides thereof and fixed to a stand base, two or more magnets that are mounted on inner side surfaces of the yoke members, and a rotating member that is provided with a voice coil disposed in parallel in a direction facing the magnet and disposed between the yoke members, and has one end rotatably coupled to the yoke members and the other end provided with a diaphragm coupling part to which a diaphragm is coupled.

In an example, an electronic device may include a housing and a first acoustic device pivotally disposed in the housing. The first acoustic device may move between a first position within the housing and a second position outside the housing. The first acoustic device may direct an acoustic signal in a direction. Further, the electronic device may include a camera to capture an image of an area in front of the electronic device. Furthermore, the electronic device may include a processor operatively coupled to the camera and the first acoustic device. The processor may determine a location of a facial feature of an operator using the captured image. Further, the processor may control an angle of rotation of the first acoustic device relative to the housing based on the location of the facial feature to modify the direction of the acoustic signal.

A headphone ear cup holds the transducer. This patent focuses on applying tone wood porting theory to the headphone cup. Simply put, tone wood theory states that certain woods provide a tonality to the music. The practice of speaker porting has been in use for many years to extend the bass response of a speaker. By combining tone woods with porting, a more musical presentation created than by using a polymer or metal cup.

Various aspects include portable speakers and methods of controlling such speakers. In a particular implementation, a portable loudspeaker includes: a controller configured to control an audio output according to at least two distinct equalization profiles and in at least two distinct physical orientations, where the controller is configured to switch between two of the distinct equalization profiles in response to detecting a change in physical orientation of the portable loudspeaker between two of the distinct physical orientations, where the switch between the two distinct equalization profiles is either: a) modified by a hysteresis factor, or b) smoothed according to a predefined pattern.

An auto-orienting loudspeaker assembly for a vehicle seat includes a housing arranged to be received within a rear side of the vehicle seat, an enclosure rotatably mounted to the housing, the enclosure having a nonuniform weight distribution, and a loudspeaker disposed within the enclosure and having an initial orientation. A change in an angular position of the vehicle seat results in a passive rotation of the enclosure with respect to the housing to substantially maintain the initial orientation of the loudspeaker as the angular position of the vehicle seat changes.

A multi-function acoustic sensor may include a plate structure having a plurality of open spaces that are spaced apart from each other; a plurality of sensors provided on the plate structure, the plurality of sensors including a plurality of sensor elements respectively provided to overlap the plurality of open spaces; and a case having an inner space in which the plurality of sensors are provided, the case including: a first case surface on which the plurality of sensors are provided, the first case surface having at least one first hole, and a second case surface opposite to the first case surface, the second case surface having at least one second hole, wherein the at least one first hole and the at least one second hole form at least one path along which sound is transmitted and sensed through at least one of the plurality of open spaces of the plate structure.

Embodiments are described for a high-frequency waveguide that improves the performance of large-scale surround sound and immersive audio environments. A horn waveguide is configured to be asymmetric about one of a vertical axis and horizontal axis of the waveguide to form an asymmetric horn waveguide. A spherical enclosure surrounds the asymmetric horn waveguide to form a horn speaker, and a three-axis mounting system is configured to fix the horn speaker to one of a wall or ceiling surface of the venue, wherein the mounting system facilitates rotating the horn speaker to a location that provides maximum coverage of the venue within the passband of the asymmetric horn waveguide.

A system for automatically adjusting a volume of a loudspeaker includes a loudspeaker and a processor. An infrared sensor, which generates a sensing signal when sensing IR radiation from a heat-radiating source, is disposed on the loudspeaker. The sensing signal provides a size information commensurate with a size of the heat-radiating source. The processor receives a plurality of the sensing signals at different time points to obtain a plurality of corresponding size information, realizes a change of distance between the heat-radiating source and the loudspeaker according to a change of the size information, and generates a volume-adjusting signal according to the change of distance between the heat-radiating source and the loudspeaker. The volume-adjusting signal is transmitted to the loudspeaker to adjust the volume of the loudspeaker accordingly.

An audio processing method implemented by an electronic device includes entering a multi-channel video recording mode, detecting a shooting operation of a user, simultaneously recording, after detecting the shooting operation, a first video image and a second video image using a first camera and a second camera, and recording audio of a plurality of sound channels, where the audio includes panoramic audio, first audio corresponding to the first video image, and second audio corresponding to the second video image. The electronic device further records the first audio based on a feature value such as a zoom magnification corresponding to the first display area.
