Title:
A METHOD OF AUDIO REPRODUCTION AT A RECEIVER USING AN AUDIO-EQUALISER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/109635
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method of audio reproduction at a receiver, comprising the step of the receiver automatically deploying an audio-equaliser parameter in dependence on programme type information received or processed by the receiver. Automatic selection of audio-equaliser parameters dependent on broadcast programme type information is a useful addition to an integrated or stand-alone radio receiver as it has the potential to enhance the listening experience of the user, and means that less interaction with the device is required, thus making the device easier and quicker to use. It finds particular application for in-car or in-vehicle receivers since a driver will rarely wish to manually select audio equaliser presets or manually alter audio equaliser configurations when driving; the advantages of an automatic method of doing so are considerable.
