INTELLIGENT DEVICE CONNECTION FOR WIRELESS MEDIA IN AN AD HOC ACOUSTIC NETWORK
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving a radio signal at an intelligent device connection unit implemented in a media device;
determining a source of the radio signal to be outside of an acoustic network being associated with the media device;
generating a location data associated with a location of the source;
receiving an acoustic signal from the source;
evaluating the acoustic signal and metadata associated with the acoustic signal to determine additional location data;
updating the location data using the additional location data;
generating acoustic network data using the location data, the acoustic network data associating the source with the acoustic network; and
sending setup data to the source.

Abstract
Techniques associated with intelligent device connection for wireless media in an ad hoc acoustic network are described, including receiving a radio signal at an intelligent device connection unit implemented in a media device, determining a source of the radio signal to be outside of an acoustic network being associated with the media device, generating a location data associated with a location of the source, receiving an acoustic signal from the source, evaluating the acoustic signal and metadata associated with the acoustic signal to determine additional location data, updating the location data, generating acoustic network data using the location data, the acoustic network data associating the source with the acoustic network, and sending setup data to the source.
