An outdoor loudspeaker that is weather resistant and includes environmental lighting is described. The lamp is mounted to a cap at the top of the loudspeaker. An audio driver is mounted below the lamp. A system outdoor loudspeakers is also described. The lighting circuitry and the audio circuitry is separate, e.g., separate conduits and wiring in the loudspeaker. The cap can include a light guide, e.g., a lens centrally mounted in the cap or an opaque cover to direct the light downwardly and outwardly. At least part of the loudspeaker can be mounted underground and, in the case of a sub-woofer, the entire chamber can be mounted below ground.

A vehicle capable of directing a sound output from a center speaker to a passenger by adjusting a tilt angle and a swivel angle of a cradle for a user terminal device includes: a center speaker provided on a dashboard; a cradle provided within a preset distance from the center speaker, fixing a user terminal device, and configured to tilt and swivel; a camera configured to obtain an image of a passenger; and a controller configured to determine an ear position of the passenger based on the image of the passenger, determine a first angle and a second angle based on the ear position of the passenger, and control the cradle to be tilted by the first angle and swiveled by the second angle.

A video audio recording system includes a video acquisition unit, an audio acquisition unit, a video recording parameter acquisition unit, and an audio emphasis unit. The video acquisition unit acquires a video signal by recording video of a subject. The audio acquisition unit acquires an audio signal by recording a sound. The video recording parameter acquisition unit acquires first information representing a video recording direction of the video acquisition unit and second information representing a positional relationship between the video acquisition unit and the audio acquisition unit. The audio emphasis unit emphasizes, based on the acquired first and second information, the acquired audio signal of the sound arriving in a predetermined direction.

An audio device having an improved bendable structure is disclosed. The audio device includes an amplifier unit configured to amplify an audio signal, at least one speaker unit configured to output the amplified audio signal as a sound signal, and at least one link unit rotatably connecting the at least one speaker unit to the amplifier unit.

The present disclosure relates to a piece of furniture, particularly an adjustable bed, having a speaker system. The bed includes a base having an outer peripheral edge. At least one speaker is mounted to the base of the piece of furniture, typically to the legs. The at least one speaker is mounted to face outwards from a center portion of the bed. The at least one speaker is mounted inboard of the outer peripheral edge of the base of the bed so as to conceal the speakers from a top view. The speaker system may also be used with various other pieces of furniture such as couches, chairs, tables, etc. A subwoofer may also be mounted to the base of the bed.

Speaker bracket comprising an attachment body (2) having a pivot column formed within a recessed channel. An arm assembly is provided comprising a tiltable inner arm portion (4) at least partially housed within an outer arm portion (3). The outer arm portion has a pivot channel into which the pivot column is received for connecting the arm assembly to the attachment body (2) and permitting it to swivel about the pivot column. A rotatable assembly is provided comprising an interface plate (6) connected to the front of the inner arm portion (4) and a speaker fixing plate (8) for attachment to a speaker and being rotatably connected to the interface plate (6) through a shaft (9) and fastener. The shaft (9) and fastener are at least partially received within a cavity in the front of the inner arm portion (4).

In one aspect, an apparatus for connecting a first object to a second object includes a member with a plurality of teeth and an attachment element which includes a plurality of teeth which can engage with the teeth of the member. One of the member and the attachment element are securable to one of the first and second objects. The other of the member and the attachment element are securable to the other of the first and second objects. A securing device prevents the member's teeth from disengaging with the attachment element's teeth such that the attachment element is secured to the member at a certain location along the member. As such, the attachment element can be secured to the member at a plurality of different locations along the member so that the first object can be connected to the second object in a plurality of different positions.

Provided is an audio reproduction device including: first and second speaker supports that have a lid shape and are provided on a case in an openable and closable manner; a sensor that detects a first state and a second state, the first and second speaker supports being closed in the first state, the first and second speaker supports being opened and held almost horizontally in the second state; first and second speakers respectively attached on front surfaces of the first and second speaker supports such that a distance in the second state is larger than a distance in the first state; and a reproduction characteristic control unit that switches reproduction characteristics of the first and second speakers in the first state and the second state on the basis of a detection signal from the sensor.

A system and method is described for determining whether a loudspeaker device has relocated, tilted, rotated, or changed environment such that one or more parameters for driving the loudspeaker may be modified and/or a complete reconfiguration of the loudspeaker system may be performed. In one embodiment, the system may include a set of sensors. The sensors provide readings that are analyzed to determine 1) whether the loudspeaker has moved since a previous analysis and/or 2) a distance of movement and/or a degree change in orientation of the loudspeaker since the previous analysis. Upon determining the level of movement is below a threshold value, the system adjusts previous parameters used to drive one or more of the loudspeakers. By adjusting previous parameters instead of performing a complete recalibration, the system provides a more efficient technique for ensuring that the loudspeakers continue to produce accurate sound for the listener.

A connection pin comprises an elongated neck and a base at an end of the neck. The base may include a first portion, a second portion between the first portion and the neck, and a lip between the first portion and the second portion. A distance between the lip and the neck may be less than a radius of the neck. The connection pin may further comprises at least one spring-loaded element along the neck for maintaining the connection pin in a temporary fixed position relative to another element in which the neck is constructed for insertion and an actuator that retracts the at least one spring-loaded element when in a pressed position. An end of the actuator does not exceed a surface of the base when the actuator is in an unpressed position. An opening in the base may be threaded.
