The keeper's note
A media device that transmits audio calibration signals to multiple speakers to enable delivery of personalized directional audio (PGPUB duplicate).
Abstract
There is provided a media device for use in a system including a plurality of speakers. The media device includes a memory configured to store a software application, and a processor. The processor is configured to execute the software application to transmit one or more audio calibration signals to the plurality of speakers for emission of sounds by the plurality of speakers in an environment, receive, from a user device, information relating to a detection ofthe one or more audio calibration signals detected by the user device, and analyze the information received from the user device to determine how the sounds travel in the environment.
