Calibration of a home entertainment system using a wireless home entertainment hub
First Claim
1. A method of calibrating a home entertainment system containing a wireless home entertainment hub using a calibration device, the method comprising:
- obtaining a registration from at least one sink device in the home entertainment system;
transmitting a first instruction from the wireless home entertainment hub to the calibration device to begin receiving a calibration signal emitted from the at least one sink device, wherein the calibration device is a wireless device including a position detection device to receive the calibration signal;
transmitting a second instruction from the wireless home entertainment hub to the at least one sink device to emit the calibration signal;
receiving, at the wireless home entertainment hub from the calibration device a representation of the calibration signal emitted from the at least one sink device;
analyzing, at the wireless home entertainment hub, the representation of the calibration signal; and
transmitting, from the wireless home entertainment hub to the at least one sink device, one or more indications of adjustments to parameters of the at least one sink device based on analyzing the representation of the calibration signal to provide a calibrated home theater environment including audio sink devices and video sink devices.

Abstract
A method of calibrating a home entertainment system containing a wireless home entertainment hub using a calibration device comprises obtaining a registration from at least one sink device in the home entertainment system. A first instruction is transmitted to the calibration device to begin receiving a calibration signal emitted from the at least one sink device, where the calibration device is a wireless device. A second instruction is transmitted to the at least one sink device to emit the calibration signal. A representation of the calibration signal emitted from the at least one sink device is received from the calibration device. The representation of the calibration signal is analyzed. One or more indications of adjustments to parameters of the sink device based on results from the analyzing is transmitted to each of the sink devices.
