Problems solved by technology

As a result, users may perceive a wireless connection as lower quality and less feature content than a wired connection since the cover art cannot be displayed
Because the cover art cannot be displayed, users may also think that playing music saved as an audio file on the memory of a private electronic device or using an Internet application is more important than playing music obtained from an Internet radio station (for example, Pandora® or Stitcher®) Programs (for example, RDIO, TuneIN, or Soundcloud) obtain music that is of lower quality

Abstract

A graphical display system for an audio system that receives data from a personal electronic device is provided. The personal electronic device is associated with a specific song. The graphical display system includes a display and a control module. The control module is in communication with the display and the personal electronic device. The control module has a control module memory that contains a database. The database includes a plurality of songs and metadata of the plurality of songs that indicates a title, an artist, a specific album, and a cover art that corresponds to each of the plurality of songs. The control module includes control logic for establishing a short range wireless connection between the control module and the personal electronic device. The control module includes control logic for receiving audio data that is associated with the specific song through the short range wireless connection.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This patent application claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 556,354, filed November 7, 2011, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to a graphic display system for an audio system, and more particularly to a graphic display system for displaying an image representing cover art for a particular song on a display. Background technique [0004] Individuals can use personal electronic devices - such as smartphones or portable media players - to play music. In one approach, music can be obtained from Internet radio stations - such as Pandora® or Stitcher®.
