Abstract
An audible location alarm is generated from an ear-level device of a type comprising a memory, a microphone and a speaker, each coupled to a processor. Communication is established between the ear-level device and a companion device, the companion device having an interface, a display associated with the user interface, and an audible location alarm program stored therein. The audible location alarm program is initiated. An audible location alarm signal is transmitted to the ear-level device, thereby providing instruction to the ear-level device to broadcast an audible location alarm through the speaker of the ear level device until detection of an end event.

14. A method for generating an audible location alarm from an ear-level device of a type comprising a memory, a microphone and a speaker, each coupled to a processor, the method comprising:
-
establishing communication between the ear-level device and a companion device, the companion device comprising a user interface, a display associated with the user interface, and an audible location alarm program stored in the companion device; initiating the audible location alarm program by selecting a first, ear-level device application icon on the display causing the audible location alarm screen to be displayed on the display; selecting a second, tools icon causing a tools screen to be displayed on the display; selecting a third, find me icon causing the audible location alarm program to become active and the display of an audio alarm warning screen on the display; selecting a cancel icon or a proceed icon; if the cancel icon is selected, return to the second, tools icon selecting step; and if the proceed icon is selected, transmitting an audible location alarm signal to the ear-level device by the companion device for a length of time, thereby providing instruction to the ear-level device to broadcast an audible location alarm through the speaker of the ear level device. - View Dependent Claims (15)
