摘要: Embodiments include a portable system for delivering multi-sensory stimulation to a user in association with audio-visual content. The system comprises sensory output modules individually capable of delivering a different sensory output to the user in synchrony with a corresponding portion of the audio-visual content, and a housing comprising the modules and configured for attachment to an electronic device capable of presenting the audio-visual content to the user. Embodiments also include a method of delivering multi-sensory stimulations to a user in association with audio-visual content provided by an electronic device. The method comprises receiving an audio signal associated with the audio-visual content via a wireless transceiver; broadcasting the audio signal to sensory output modules; at the modules, generating a sensory output command based on the audio signal and a sensory output capability of the module; and outputting a sensory output from each of the modules based on the command generated thereby.

摘要: Embodiments include a system for enhancing an audio listening experience, the system comprising an electrical device configured to impart vibrations, to a chest area of a user, based on an incoming audio signal and detect an acoustic resonance generated in a chest cavity of the user as a result of the vibrations; and an acoustic system configured to output the incoming audio signal in synchrony with the vibrations imparted to the chest cavity and simultaneously deliver haptic and audible vibrations associated with the acoustic resonance to the ears of the user. Embodiments also include a headphone system comprising an audio driver for outputting an incoming audio signal to the ears; and at least one acoustical port configured to deliver haptic and audible vibrations to the ear, the haptic and audible vibrations being associated with an acoustic resonance generated in a chest cavity of the user based on the audio signal.

摘要: Methods of enhancing a sensory experience to simulate a live event are provided. One includes providing an audible signal representing sound information; generating a vibration signal based on the audible signal and enhanced information that would be present at the live event; and providing the vibration signal to at least one vibration device for stimulating nerve receptors in a foot area, the vibration signal synchronized with the audible signal to produce a perception in the brain of being present at the live event. Another method includes generating a vibration signal representing vibrations including tactile vibrations for stimulating nerve receptors in a foot to simulate being present at a live event, and vibrations based on reproduced sound information; and providing the signal to at least one vibration device for delivering the vibrations to the feet, the tactile vibrations based on enhanced information different from the sound information and including non-audible elements,

摘要: An entertainment system is provided, the system comprising a portable media device configured to simultaneously produce an audible output signal and a plurality of vibratory output signals, the audible output signal representing a multi-track recording comprising a plurality of individual recorded tracks, each vibratory output signal based on at least one individual recorded track; and a plurality of actuators positioned at various locations on a user's body, each actuator configured to receive a respective one of the vibratory signals and to vibrate based on the received signal. A method of mixing a multi-track vibratory recording is also provided, the method comprising utilizing an entertainment system to feel vibrations representing individual recorded tracks on different locations of a user's body; and for each actuator, selecting at least one of the tracks based on suitability for driving the actuator, and providing, to the actuator, a vibratory signal derived from the selected track.

摘要: Embodiments include a haptic transducer device comprising a magnetic assembly including a yoke and a magnet disposed within an inner cavity formed by the yoke. The device further includes a diaphragm having a top surface, a ledge projecting below and outwards relative to the top surface, and a sidewall extending downwards from the ledge towards the inner cavity. The device also includes a suspension extending concentrically around the diaphragm and including arms extending between inner and outer edges of the suspension, the inner edge being attached to the ledge of the diaphragm and the outer edge being attached to the outer ledge of the yoke. The device further includes a coil attached to the sidewall of the diaphragm and suspended within the inner cavity. One embodiment further includes an attachment groove integrated into the top surface of the diaphragm and configured for receiving attachment structures included on a footwear insole.
