Embodiment Construction

[0039] A vehicle audio system according to an aspect of the present invention is capable of operating in two modes: a mode in which one or more parameters of the audio system are configured to act as a door (e.g., included in a sport utility vehicle, tailgate in vans and pick-up trucks and openings in rear-opening vehicles) to better optimize sound quality when closed; and a second mode in which one or more of the audio system A parameter is configured to better optimize sound quality when one or more doors, such as a tailgate, are opened.

[0040] Additionally, the user can operate the car audio system when the engine is not running, thus drawing power from the vehicle's battery. It is therefore desirable for a vehicle audio system to monitor one or more operating conditions of the battery and adjust system performance in order to extend the maximum period of time the audio system can operate on battery power. It is also desirable to monitor one or more operating conditions ...

Abstract

The present invention provides an audio system for a vehicle, which includes an audio source. The controller modifies the audio signal from the audio source using one of the first and second signal processing operations in response to user input. The first signal processing operation is configured for audio signals heard inside the vehicle, and the second signal processing operation is configured for audio signals listened outside the vehicle. The first plurality of transducers is driven by an audio signal configured for listening in the vehicle by the first signal processing operation. The second plurality of transducers is driven by an audio signal that is configured for listening outside the vehicle by a second signal processing operation.

[0001] Related references [0002] This patent application is a continuation in part (CIP) of US Patent Application Serial No. 10 / 290.989, filed November 8, 2002, entitled Automotive Audio Systems, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a car audio system. Background technique [0004] An audio system is included in virtually every car built today. These audio systems are generally designed to be used when doors, tailgates and other openings to the passenger compartment are closed. However, people often choose to listen to their vehicle audio system when they are outside their vehicle, such as when they are camping or "tailgating" at a sport. Because conventional car audio systems are not designed for this type of use, listeners do not appreciate the high quality sound presentation they would have enjoyed if the system had been designed for outdoor use. [0005] The acoustic characteris...
