Abstract: A headset system comprising a headset and a base station. Each of said headset and base station comprises a transceiver configured to transmit radio signals between said headset and said base station according to a first wireless communication protocol, and each of said headset and base station further comprises a transceiver configured to transmit radio signals between said headset and said base station according to a second wireless communication protocol. At least one of said headset and said base station further comprises selecting means, such as a protocol selector configured to select one of said first and second wireless communication protocols for transmission of radio signals between said headset and said base station. The protocol selector is adapted to select the first wireless communication protocol for transmission of voice communication and the second wireless communication protocol for transmission of media content.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a desktop speakerphone array processor for microphones which produces high quality sound. The microphone array has a front direction defined by the line of sight from a microphone inlet of the second microphone towards a microphone inlet of the first microphone, the array processor being connected to receive a front microphone signal from the first microphone, a rear microphone signal from the second microphone and an audio output signal representing a speaker sound emitted from a sound driver arranged near the first and second microphones and in the rearwards hemisphere with respect to the front direction of the microphone array, the array processor being configured to provide a first array signal having a first directivity pattern with a main lobe oriented in the front direction of the microphone array in dependence on the front microphone signal, the rear microphone signal and the audio output signal. The array process has a filter configured to filter the rear microphone signal using a first set of filter coefficients and a subtractor configured to subtract the filtered signal from the front microphone signal and to provide the result in a difference signal. The filter controller repeatedly performs a cross-power analysis based on the audio output signal, the front microphone signal and the rear microphone signal and to determine the first set of filter coefficients in dependence on the result of the cross-power analysis.

Abstract: A method of updating a headset system firmware and a headset system are provided. The headset system comprises a headset and a base unit, the base unit having a base unit control circuit and being configured to connect to a computer system, the base unit comprises a headset dock to receive the headset. The method comprises the steps of receiving, in the base unit control circuit, a headset system firmware update from the computer system, the headset system firmware update comprising a headset firmware update and/or a base unit firmware update, and updating the base unit control circuit with the base unit firmware update. In a base unit storage, storing the headset firmware update having a headset firmware update version and when a headset having a current headset firmware version is received in the headset dock, controlling the base unit control circuit to check whether the current headset firmware version is the same as the headset firmware update version stored in the base unit storage, and updating the current headset firmware with the stored headset firmware update if one or more conditions are fulfilled.

Abstract: A computer controller for a plurality of audio devices and audio applications and a method of control is disclosed. An audio subsystem is disclosed allowing multiple applications executed by the computer to exchange audio signals with multiple sound interface devices. A first sound interface device to emit a first loudspeaker sound signal in dependence on the first loudspeaker audio signal. The sound signal is received by an intermediate application and from the audio subsystem a first microphone audio signal depending on a first microphone sound signal received by the first sound interface device. An intermediate application causes a second sound interface device to emit a second loudspeaker sound signal in dependence on the second loudspeaker audio signal. This allows a user to conduct a softphone call using one headset connected to the computer, while the user's supervisor may listen in on the softphone call using a second headset connected to the same computer, however, without requiring any changes of the computer's hardware, its operating system or the softphone application.

Abstract: An earphone simultaneously allows high-level low-frequency sound and effective noise reduction. The earphone has a front cavity separated from ambient space The earphone has a housing having a wall separating a rear cavity with an acoustic compliance from the front cavity and from ambient space; a first diaphragm reciprocatably suspended across a first through hole in the housing wall between the front cavity and the rear cavity and adapted to be actively driven to provide the acoustic output signal; and a second diaphragm reciprocatably suspended in the housing wall between the rear cavity and ambient space where the acoustic resonant system is configured such that the resonance frequency is below 500 Hz. The second diaphragm attenuates acoustic signals entering the rear cavity from ambient space at frequencies above the resonance frequency and virtually increases the acoustic compliance of the rear cavity at frequencies below the resonance frequency.
