Abstract

A point of sale system includes: a transceiver; an activator; and a processing unit; wherein the transceiver is configured for, upon activation of the activator, detecting radio frequency signals transmitted from at least one device; wherein the processing unit is configured for: associating a measurement value with each of the at least one device, selecting a device from the at least one device for reception of an audio stream, based on the measurement value of the device fulfilling at least one selection criteria, and operating the transceiver to transmit the audio stream to the selected device.

Description

technical field [0001] This specification relates to a point of sale configured for secure streaming of audio data. Additionally, the specification relates to a method of secure streaming of audio data. Background technique [0002] Teletype coils in hearing devices will be replaced by long-distance radio frequency (RF) based audio streaming systems at point of sale (POS) such as ticket offices, banks, post offices, etc. It is possible to eavesdrop on such long range RF systems, and thus such systems may present privacy concerns. [0003] WO 2011 / 0015675 discloses a system for providing hearing aids to a user, comprising at least one audio signal transmission unit comprising an audio signal source, typically a microphone arrangement, and means for receiving from An audio signal source means for transmitting audio signals to a left ear receiver unit worn at the user's left ear and a right ear receiver unit worn at the user's right ear. [0004] US 2004 / 0208324 discloses a ...
