Embodiment Construction

[0033] This disclosure is based, at least in part, on the realization that a control system may be advantageously incorporated into a car audio system. For example, a car audio system may be programmatically controllable to modify aspects of the sound field in the car, such as the placement of phantom center images, the width of stereoscopic images, or the presentation of irrelevant content. The system and related methods can significantly improve the user experience when compared to conventional car audio systems.

[0034] For purposes of illustration, generally labeled components in the figures are considered to be substantially equivalent components, and redundant discussion of those components is omitted for the sake of clarity.

[0035] A conventional car audio system is based on a set of four or more speakers, two of which are located on the dashboard or in the front doors, and two are usually located on the rear luggage rack in sedans and coupes or in wagons and hatchba...

Abstract

Various implementations include a computer-implemented method and related system for controlling a phantom center image of audio output in an automobile. In one implementation, the method includes: receiving at least one user interface command to modify a phantom center image of an audio output from the audio system in the vehicle, wherein the phantom center image of the audio output includes a a specified location of sound produced by the set of speakers in the audio system other than the physical location of the set of speakers; and adjusting the sound from the audio system based on the at least one user interface command that modifies the phantom center image of the audio output The perceived position of the central image of this phantom for the audio output.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 16 / 010705, filed June 18, 2018, and a subsequent continuation application, U.S. Patent Application No. 16 / 398851, filed April 30, 2019, both of which It is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0002] The present disclosure relates generally to automotive sound field control. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to methods and related systems for controlling a phantom center image of audio output in an automobile. Background technique [0003] In some automotive audio systems, the audio signal provided to each speaker is determined based on the electrical and acoustic response of the overall system (i.e., the response of the speaker itself to the sound produced by the speaker and the response of the vehicle cabin to the sound produced by the speaker). Application processing. Such systems are highly individual to a particular car model and trim level, taking int...
