SPEAKER ASSEMBLY IN A DISPLAY ASSISTANT DEVICE

In a display assistant device, a speaker is mounted in a waveguide structure which is at least partially disposed beneath a display screen. The waveguide structure is mounted in an exterior housing which includes speaker grills distributed on a plurality of surfaces of the exterior housing, permitting sound waves from the speaker to be projected outside the exterior housing. A cover structure is disposed on top of the waveguide structure to conceal the waveguide structure and speaker within the exterior housing. The cover structure has a tilted bottom surface configured to be suspended above the waveguide structure and to be separated by a first space. Sound waves projected from an upper portion of the speaker are reflected by the tilted bottom surface and are guided through the first space to exit the device from a speaker grill portion located on a rear side of the exterior housing.

20230124441 · 2023-04-20 ·

Audio device transducer arrays and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some examples, the audio device can comprise a housing including a baffle and an acoustically reflective plate spaced apart from and facing at least partially toward the baffle, such that the baffle and the plate define an opening therebetween. The audio device can further comprise an array of electroacoustic transducers disposed within or surrounded by the baffle and configured to emit acoustic waves toward the opening. The array of transducers can be configured to produce acoustic waves having a frequency of about 1.5 kilohertz (kHz) or greater.

ACOUSTIC OUTPUT DEVICE

The present disclosure relates to a pair of glasses. The pair of glasses may include a frame, one or more lenses, and one or more temples. The pair of glasses may further include at least one low-frequency acoustic driver, at least one high-frequency acoustic driver, and a controller. The at least one low-frequency acoustic driver may be configured to output sounds from at least two first guiding holes.

The present invention describes a loudspeaker comprising a housing and a plurality of sound transducers arranged inside said housing, where the housing has two sides arranged on either side of a x-y plane with a mutual distance between said sides measured along a z-axis orthogonal to the x-y plane, and a front facing side and a rear facing side, and a top and a bottom, wherein

a. A first sound transducer is arranged inside a first cavity inside said loudspeaker housing, where said first cavity has a narrow first slit in the y-direction provided in the rear facing side, where said first slit has a width z1 in the z-direction, and a length y1 in the y-direction where the length y1 in the y-direction is larger than the width z1 in the z-direction;

b. A second sound transducer is arranged inside a second cavity inside said loudspeaker housing, separate from said first cavity, and where said second cavity is provided with a narrow second slit in the y-direction provided in the front facing side, where said second slit has a width z2 in the z-direction, and a length y2 in the y-direction, where the length y2 in the y-direction is larger than the width z2 in the z-direction.

Full acoustic horn and method for producing same

The invention relates to speaker systems for high-quality sound reproduction. It provides a simplified structure of the device, improves the device manufacturability and durability. The speaker system includes the driver, the horn for reproducing low-frequency range sound (rear horn), and the horn for reproducing high-frequency and mid-frequency range sound (front horn); both horns are made in the form of a single enclosure with the capability of mounting the driver in this enclosure, while the enclosure is made of two solid parts symmetrical with respect to the plane of the central vertical section, each part represents a half of the overall profile of the front and rear horns, with no joints at the junction between the front and the rear horns.

Control and audio systems for a boat

A boat includes a dash positioned proximate a windshield at a first non-zero angle. A speaker is mounted under a top surface of the dash at a second non-zero angle. The speaker is positioned to direct sound emanating from the speaker through an opening in the dash and the windshield is configured to reflect the sound emanating from the speaker as reflected sound in an aft direction. The boat may also include an enclosure having a reflective surface positioned within a cavity formed between the deck and hull of the boat. A speaker, mounted within the enclosure, and the reflective surface are configured to reflect sound emanating from the speaker off of the reflective surface and through an opening of the enclosure.
