METHOD FOR AUGMENTING A LISTENING EXPERIENCE
First Claim
1. A method for augmenting a listening experience of a user through an audio device, the method comprising:
- detecting a location of the audio device;
selecting a set of audio output feedbacks, each audio output feedback in the set of audio output feedback entered by an individual and associated with a physical site proximal to the location;
identifying a common feature across audio output feedbacks within the set of audio output feedbacks;
transforming an audio signal into a processed audio signal according to a hearing profile of the user and the common feature; and
outputting the processed audio signal through the audio device.

Abstract
One variation of a method for augmenting a listening experience of a user through an audio device includes: detecting a location of the audio device; selecting a set of audio output feedbacks, each audio output feedback in the set of audio output feedback entered by an individual and associated with a physical site proximal to the location; identifying a common feature across audio output feedbacks within the set of audio output feedbacks; transforming an audio signal into a processed audio signal according to a hearing profile of the user and the common feature; and outputting the processed audio signal through the audio device.

11. A method for augmenting a listening experience of a user through an audio device, the method comprising:
-
detecting a trigger event at the audio device; retrieving a demographic of the user; selecting a set of audio output feedbacks, each audio output feedback in the set of audio output feedbacks entered into a device, at a previous event consonant with the trigger, by an individual of known demographic consonant with the demographic of the user; generating a composite audio output feedback comprising audio output feedbacks from the set of audio output feedbacks; transforming an audio signal into a processed audio signal according to a hearing profile of the user and the composite audio output feedback; and outputting the processed audio signal through the audio device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for augmenting a group listening experience comprising:
-
detecting a set of computing devices within a range of a location of an audio device; retrieving a set of hearing profiles, each hearing profile in the set of hearing profiles generated for a corresponding individual based on a hearing test completed by the corresponding individual proximal to the location; generating a composite hearing profile from hearing profiles within the set of hearing profiles; transforming a local audio signal into a processed audio signal according to the composite hearing profile; and outputting the processed audio signal through the audio device. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22)
