Abstract:
Systems and methods are described for an adaptive audio system that renders reflected sound for adaptive audio systems in different ways depending on the orientation of at least one speaker in a set of speakers. A speaker of the system may comprise an integrated speaker having front-firing and upward-firing drivers, a sensor to determine the orientation of the speaker (e.g., horizontal or vertical) and a transceiver and control unit that transmits the orientation to a decoder and receives updated speaker feeds from the renderer based on the orientation.

Claim (Index 13):
A method for rendering immersive audio content in a system comprising a renderer and at least one speaker comprising at least one upward-firing driver and at least one front-firing driver, the method comprising:\n detecting, by the speaker, whether the speaker is in a vertical orientation or a horizontal orientation; transmitting, by the speaker, orientation information indicative of the detected orientation of the speaker to the renderer; receiving, by the renderer, the orientation information sent by the speaker; sending, by the renderer, a first speaker feed when the orientation information indicates that the speaker is in the horizontal orientation, and sending, by the renderer, a second speaker feed, different from the first speaker feed, when the orientation information indicates that the speaker is in the vertical orientation, wherein each speaker feed includes at least one of a first driver feed for the at least one upward-firing driver and a second driver feed for the at least one front-firing driver; receiving, by the speaker, the first speaker feed or the second speaker feed respectively; and driving the speaker according to the received first or second speaker feed.
