| 20080231113 | Multiple device battery charger - An improved method of charging multiple batteries and battery powered devices of different types at one time. Utilizing multiple methods of supplying DC power to external batteries, a user can charge a variety of devices at the same time. The power is routed in three distinct ways: directly to the output ports, through resistors, and through a switch converter. Then, using methods established and known to one in the art, external electronic devices may be attached to the output ports. Thus, the external battery will be charged through whichever route delivers the proper voltage. This design utilizes the logic contained within the external device for charging purposes. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20100227597 | MOBILE CONFERENCING AND AUDIO SHARING TECHNOLOGY - A method and apparatus is provided for setting up a voice conference call or sharing audio content. The method includes the steps of providing an audio mixer that receives an audio input from each of at least three audio interfaces of the conference call, mixes the audio inputs and provides an equalized audio output to each of the at least three audio interfaces, providing a first local wireless interface between a first audio interface of the at least three audio interfaces and a first headset, providing a second local interface between a second audio interface of the at least three audio interfaces and a second headset and coupling a third audio interface of the at least three audio interfaces to a third headset through a base station of a cellular network, wherein the communication paths to the first, second and third persons are all different. | 09-09-2010 |

| 20090073950 | Wireless Audio Gateway Headset - A wireless, multi-function audio gateway device provides communication between the headset and at least one audio gateway. The headset includes a housing having at least one multifunction button, and a first and a second microphone. The first microphone is located closer to a user's mouth than the second microphone. The headset also includes a flexible ear bud, a speaker, a volume control button, a rechargeable battery, a USB port, a detachable ear wrap, and a programmable baseband IC. The programmable baseband IC is configured for wireless communications to allow interfacing between the at least one audio gateway and the wireless headset. Methods for improved noise suppression, pairing and communicating with multiple audio gateways simultaneously, and allowing headset-to-headset communications between two wireless, multiple audio gateway headsets are also disclosed. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090267562 | PORTABLE BATTERY CHARGER FOR MULTIPLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES - The multiple unit portable battery charger disclosed is a portable, rechargeable refueling station for handheld and mobile electronics. The multiple device portable battery charger is capable of providing a full charge to two electronic devices either simultaneously or individually. Additionally, the battery charger can charge the two devices simultaneously up to three separate times before the battery charger requires recharging. In other words, the battery charger disclosed is capable of charging six or more devices before needing to be recharged itself. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100067197 | PORTABLE MULTI-DEVICE POWER SUPPLY, BATTERY CHARGER, AND DOCKING SYSTEM - A multiple electronic device power supply, battery charger, and USB docking system has a plurality of power ports for charging/powering electronic devices and a plurality of USB ports for coupling peripheral devices to a computer or large electronic device. Electronic devices which may be charged using the present invention can require current from less than 500 mA to approximately 6 A. Voltage setting resistors in specialized adapters serve to set the voltage needed for individual devices in order to manage current and voltage distribution throughout the present invention, particularly when large and mid-sized electronic devices are connected to the present multiple device charger and docking system. Default settings set the voltage output at 24 volts if not otherwise directed. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100172271 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS CONNECTION DEVICE - A method and apparatus is provided for setting up a wireless conference call, wireless non-call conference, and sharing audio and/or video content. The method includes the steps of providing an audio mixer that receives an audio input from each of at least three audio interfaces, mixes, cleans, and amplifies and/or de-amplifies the audio signal from the audio inputs and provides an equalized audio output to each of the at least three audio interfaces; providing a first local wireless interface; providing a second local wireless interface; and, providing a third wireless interface, so as to permit simultaneous two-way (incoming and outgoing) communications between each participant during wireless conferencing, and so as to permit simultaneous one-way communications between an audio and/or video content source and each local participant during wireless sharing of audio and/or video content between the local participants. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20110161398 | AUTOMATED CONTENT AND BOOKMARK DISTRIBUTION - A method of submitting content on behalf of a client to multiple service providers includes the steps of receiving a request from a client to submit content to a plurality of service providers and processing the request utilizing a server. The step of processing includes the steps of retrieving client login information necessary to submit the content to the plurality of service providers, logging on to the service providers using the client login information, if necessary, and submitting the content to the plurality of service providers through a client device. The steps of processing, retrieving, logging on, and submitting are performed automatically by the server after the request is received without additional input from the client. | 06-30-2011 |
