Calibration of Audio Playback Devices
First Claim
1. An audio playback device comprising:
- a microphone;
a speaker;
a processor comprising instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to;
output by the speaker first audio content;
receive by the microphone an indication of the first audio content;
determine a first acoustic response of a room in which the audio playback device is located based on the received indication of first audio content by the microphone;
applying a mapping to the first acoustic response to determine a second acoustic response, wherein the second acoustic response is indicative of an approximated acoustic response of the room at a spatial location different from a spatial location of the microphone; and
adjust based on the second acoustic response second audio content output by the speaker.

Abstract
An audio playback device comprises a microphone, a speaker, and a processor. The processor is arranged to output by the speaker first audio content and receive by the microphone an indication of the first audio content. A first acoustic response of a room in which the audio playback device is located is determined based on the received indication of first audio content. A mapping is applied to the first acoustic response to determine a second acoustic response. The second acoustic response is indicative of an approximated acoustic response of the room at a spatial location different from a spatial location of the microphone. The second audio content output by the speaker is adjusted based on the second response.

1. An audio playback device comprising:
-
a microphone; a speaker; a processor comprising instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to; output by the speaker first audio content; receive by the microphone an indication of the first audio content; determine a first acoustic response of a room in which the audio playback device is located based on the received indication of first audio content by the microphone; applying a mapping to the first acoustic response to determine a second acoustic response, wherein the second acoustic response is indicative of an approximated acoustic response of the room at a spatial location different from a spatial location of the microphone; and adjust based on the second acoustic response second audio content output by the speaker. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

7. A method comprising:
-
outputting first audio content by a speaker of an audio playback device; receiving an indication of the first audio content by a microphone of the audio playback device; determining a first acoustic response of a room in which the audio playback device is located based on the received indication of first audio content by the microphone; applying a mapping to the first acoustic response to determine a second acoustic response, wherein the second acoustic response is indicative of an approximated acoustic response of the room at a spatial location different from a spatial location of the microphone; and adjusting based on the second acoustic response audio content output by the speaker. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A computer readable storage medium including instructions for execution by a processor, the instructions, when executed, cause the processor to implement a method comprising:
-
outputting first audio content by a speaker of an audio playback device; receiving an indication of the first audio content by a microphone of the audio playback device; determining a first acoustic response of a room in which the audio playback device is located based on the received indication of first audio content by the microphone; applying a mapping to the first acoustic response to determine a second acoustic response, wherein the second acoustic response is indicative of an approximated acoustic response of the room at a spatial location different from a spatial location of the microphone; and adjusting based on the second acoustic response second audio content output by the audio playback device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
