Filed:
Jul 16, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/622167
Inventors:
Steven F. Burson - Darby MT, US
James E. Blum - San Jose CA, US
Jay Wilson - Portola Valley CA, US

Assignee:
Plantronics, Inc. - Santa Cruz CA
International Classification:
H01R033/20
US Classification:
439675, 439218, 439378, 439824
Abstract:
The present invention provides a charging interface. The interface includes a first contact interface system for receiving a male connector. The first interface contact interface system includes a housing with a front surface, where the front surface includes an aperture leading to a well within the housing. A first positive contact is disposed within the well and a first negative contact is disposed within the well. The interface also includes a second contact interface system comprising conductive contacts disposed on the front surface outside the aperture. The conductive contacts comprise a second positive contact and a second negative contact.
Microphone Position And Speech Level Sensor
US Patent:
6941161, Sep 6, 2005
Filed:
Sep 13, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/952434
Inventors:
James F. Bobisuthi - Boulder Creek CA, US
Robert J. Bernardi - Scotts Valley CA, US

Assignee:
Plantronics, Inc - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04Q007/20
US Classification:
4555691, 4555561, 381 72, 37914213
Abstract:
Improper microphone position and speech level on a telephone headset is sensed by comparison of a speech envelope to multiple signal threshold levels. A first threshold is used to determine whether a headset user is talking. A second threshold is used to determine whether a signal level at the microphone is sufficiently strong for proper communication. An indicator is activated when the user is talking and the signal level is too weak. Typically, a weak signal is caused by a mispositioned microphone or a user talking too softly.

Assignee:
Plantronics, Inc. - Santa Cruz CA
International Classification:
H04M 1/00
US Classification:
455570, 4555691, 381 711
Abstract:
Improper microphone position and speech level on a telephone headset is sensed by comparison of a speech envelope to multiple signal threshold levels. A first threshold is used to determine whether a headset user is talking. A second threshold is used to determine whether a signal level at the microphone is sufficiently strong for proper communication.

Auto-Adjust Noise Canceling Microphone With Position Sensor
US Patent:
7346176, Mar 18, 2008
Filed:
May 11, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/854304
Inventors:
Robert J Bernardi - Scotts Valley CA, US
Steven F Burson - Scotts Valley CA, US
Lawrence W Gollbach - Felton CA, US
Allen Woo - Scotts Valley CA, US

Assignee:
Plantronics, Inc. - Santa Cruz CA
International Classification:
H04R 3/00
US Classification:
381 92, 381313
Abstract:
A system and method detects whether or not a microphone apparatus is positioned incorrectly relative to an acoustic source and of automatically compensating for such mispositioning. A position estimation circuit determines whether the microphone apparatus is mispositioned. A controller facilitates the automatic compensation of the mispositioning.

Automatic Headset Hookswitch
US Patent:
RE41702, Sep 14, 2010
Filed:
May 5, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/429634
Inventors:
James F. Bobisuthi - Boulder Creek CA, US
Lawrence Gollbach - Ben Lomond CA, US
Robert Bernardi - Scotts Valley CA, US

Assignee:
Plantronics, Inc. - Santa Cruz CA
International Classification:
H04M 1/00
US Classification:
4555752, 4555691, 4555751, 455462, 4555501, 455 741, 379430, 379424, 379447, 37942802, 379442
Abstract:
A headset storage device includes a headset cradle, a switch and a manual override device. The headset cradle has two positions: a first position when the headset cradle is supporting a headset and a second position when the headset cradle is not supporting a headset. The switch couples the audio signal to the alternate audio system when the headset cradle is in the first position and to the headset when the headset cradle is in the second position. The manual override device forces the headset cradle into one of the two positions regardless of whether the headset cradle is supporting a headset.
