Abstract:
An electronic device that performs volume normalization is described. Based at least in part on information about an environment, which may include a second electronic device, the electronic device may determine a location of at least an individual relative to a location of the second electronic device. Then, based at least in part on the determined location, the electronic device may calculate a volume setting of a speaker in the second electronic device. For example, the volume setting may increase as a distance between the location of the individual and the location of the second electronic device increases. Alternatively or additionally, the volume setting may be based at least in part on a size of a display device in the environment. Next, the electronic device may provide audio content and second information specifying the volume setting for the second electronic device.

Claim (Index 20):
A method for calculating a volume setting, comprising:\n by an electronic device:\n acquiring information about an environment; \n determining, based at least in part on the information, a location of at least an individual relative to a location of a second electronic device; \n calculating, based at least in part on the determined location, the volume setting of a speaker in the second electronic device; and \n providing, from an interface circuit in the electronic device, audio content and second information specifying the volume setting for the second electronic device, wherein the volume setting corrects for a change in a ratio of direct sound and diffuse sound at the location relative to another location in the environment in order to provide a consistent sound experience as the location changes, and wherein the location changes comprise a location magnitude and a location angle along an arbitrary path relative to the location of the second electronic device.
