Laser inclinometer audio direction

A method to adjust sound within an area for stadium seating in a stadium, the method comprising:

• receiving a plurality of orientation reports each containing information characterizing the position of a speaker housing adjustably mounted upon a structural member in the stadium, wherein the speaker housing includes:
• a speaker;
• and
• a laser mounted on the speaker housing to emit a laser beam in the general direction of sound emitted from the speaker housing into the area for stadium seating;
• an inclinometer, mounted on the speaker housing, to:
• detect a position of the speaker housing relative to one or more axes;
• and
• output the information characterizing the position of the speaker housing;
• receiving a plurality of location reports each respectively corresponding to a location within the stadium that is illuminated by the terminus of the laser beam from the laser within a respective said speaker housing;
• associating each said location report with a corresponding said orientation report;
• and
• using one or more said associations to make one or more adjustments, wherein each said adjustment changes the position of one said speaker housing relative to a corresponding said structural member in the stadium on which the speaking housing is mounted.

A speaker housing comprising:

• a speaker;
• a laser mounted in the speaker housing to emit a laser beam in a general direction of sound emitted from the speaker housing into the area for stadium seating;
• means for detecting a position of the speaker housing relative to one or more axes;
• and
• means for electronically outputting information characterizing the position.

A speaker housing comprising:

• a speaker;
• and
• a laser to emit a laser beam in a general direction of sound emitted from the speaker housing;
• an inclinometer to position of the speaker housing relative to one or more axes;
• and
• an interface to:
• receive an electrical signal characterizing the position;
• and
• output the information characterizing the position.

A method comprising:

• rendering an orientation report containing information characterizing a general direction of sound rendered by a speaker that is adjustably mounted upon a structural member that also has mounted thereon:
• a laser mounted so as to emit a laser beam in the general direction of sound rendered by the speaker;
• and
• an apparatus to detect and output a signal containing the information characterizing the general direction of sound rendered by the speaker;
• and
• using the laser beam and the orientation report to make one or more adjustments, wherein each said adjustment changes the position of the speaker relative to the structural member on which the speaking is mounted.
