Abstract
A system for enhancing audio including a computer and an output device. The computer includes a sensor configured to determine a user location relative to the computer. The sensor is also configured to gather environment data corresponding to an environment of the computer. The computer also includes a processor in communication with the sensor and configured to process the user location and the environment data and adjust at least one of an audio output or a video output. The output device is in communication with the processor and is configured to output at least one of the audio output or the video output.
Claims1
A method for output audio from a computing device comprising:
- detecting by a sensor a user;
- determining by a processor whether the user is an optimum range for a current audio output of an audio output device;
- if the user is not within the optimum range, modifying the audio output;
- determining by the sensor whether the user is orientated towards the computing device;
- and
- adjusting an audio device based on the orientation of the user.
