Abstract
A headrest provided with several loudspeakers which normally reproduce an ambiophonic sound experience. The headrest generally includes a central section provided with at least one loudspeaker, one side section provided with at least one loudspeaker and a second side section provided with at least one loudspeaker. The side sections are arranged on either side of the center section, and extend substantially perpendicularly towards the top relative to the center section. The headrest is arranged in a way so it can be connected to an audio signal source capable of generating several different audio signals.
Claims44
1) A headrest comprising a center section which includes at least one loudspeaker, a first side section including at least one loudspeaker, and a second side section including at least one loudspeaker, all loudspeakers can be connected to an audio signal source.
22) A headrest comprising a center section, a first side section placed on one side of the center section and extending substantially perpendicular to the center section, a second side section placed on a second side of the center section and which extends substantially perpendicular to the center section, the center section includes a first plurality of loudspeakers, the first side section includes a second plurality of loudspeakers and the second side section includes a third plurality of loudspeakers, all loudspeakers can be connected to an audio signal source.
35) A headrest adapted to be connected to an audio signal source, where the audio signal source can produce at least eight different audio signals, the headrest comprising a center section, a first side section placed on one side of the center section and extending substantially perpendicular to the center section, a second side section placed on a second side of the center section and which extends substantially perpendicular to the center section, the center section includes a first plurality of loudspeakers, the first side section includes a second plurality of loudspeakers and the second side section includes a third plurality of loudspeakers, all loudspeakers can be connected to an audio signal source.
40) A headrest adapted to be connected to an audio signal source, the headrest has front and back edges and includes a center section, a first side section located on one side of the center section, which extends substantially perpendicular to the center section, a second side section located on a second side of the center section and which extends substantially perpendicular to the center section;
- the center section includes a first plurality of loudspeakers which can be connected to the audio signal source, the first side section includes a second plurality of loudspeakers which can be connected to the audio signal source and the second side section includes a third plurality of loudspeakers which can be connected to the audio signal source;
- the first plurality of loudspeakers includes a first loudspeaker which can reproduce a first audio signal, a second loudspeaker which can reproduce a second audio signal, and a third loudspeaker which can reproduce a third audio signal, the first and second loudspeakers are located closer to the back edge than the third loudspeaker;
- the second plurality of loudspeakers includes a fourth loudspeaker which can reproduce a fourth audio signal, a fifth loudspeaker which can reproduce a fifth audio signal and sixth loudspeaker which can reproduce a sixth audio signal, the fourth loudspeaker being located closer to the front edge than the fifth and sixth loudspeakers, and the sixth loudspeaker is located closer to the center section than of the fourth and fifth loudspeakers;
- the third plurality of loudspeakers including a seventh loudspeaker which can reproduce a seventh audio signal, an eighth loudspeaker which can reproduce an eighth audio signal and a ninth loudspeaker which can reproduce a ninth audio signal, the seventh loudspeaker being located closer to the front edge than the eighth and ninth loudspeakers, and the ninth loudspeaker is located closer to the center section than the seventh and eighth loudspeakers;
- wherein the fourth and seventh audio signals are identical and wherein the other audio signals are different from each other.
