ABSTRACT:
The device or arrangement transforms acoustic events, in the form of single-channel audio-frequency signals, into at least two-channel audio information with the monophonic audio-frequency signals being supplied by wireless transmission to a reproducing device, with unequal delays through the two channels, and without the incorporation of a transit-time or delay element in either channel. The device comprises a transmitting device operating on the wireless principle, and including at least one infrared transmitter and at least one ultrasonic transmitter which transmitters are simultaneously modulated with the same monophonic audio-frequency signals, and includes a reproducing device operating on the wireless principle and including at least one infrared receiver and at least one ultrasonic receiver. Due to the unequal respective velocities of propagation of infrared energy and ultrasonic energy in free air, the signals transmitted as modulated ultrasonic energy are received and reproduced with a delay relative to the signals transmitted by modulated infrared energy. The reproducing device may be a stereo headset or a quadraphonic headset, and the two receivers may be mounted in respective earpieces of the headset. The reproducing device further may be a separate unit mounted on a stereo or quadraphonic headset.
