| 20090327394 | INFORMATION PROVIDING SERVER, PROGRAM, INFORMATION PROVIDING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROVIDING SYSTEM - Technology is provided for easily converting data for use with a plurality of receiving devices. The structure-specific message generator of an information providing server generates reference information by converting the data structure of information received from a transmitting device into a data structure processable by a plurality of receiving devices. A SOAP notification generator then generates notification information for each of the receiving device by replacing information at predetermined parts in the generated reference information with receiving device-specific information. | 12-31-2009 |

| 20100189300 | Microphone Unit - A microphone unit comprises a microphone, leg members and a base. The microphone comprises a diaphragm for detecting sound and a housing for containing the diaphragm. The leg members project outwardly from a rear wall of the housing, and are provided near a second through-hole which connects a second inner space to outer space. The base is connected to the leg members to form a gap between the housing and the base. When the microphone unit thus formed in a simple structure and reduced thickness is mounted in a product, the gap allows the outer space to be connected to the second inner space through the second through-hole, making it possible to efficiently guide sound to the second inner space and obtain good differential characteristics. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100226507 | Microphone Unit - A microphone unit comprises first and second microphones and a delay element. When sound is input to the first and second microphones, the delay element delays an output signal of the first microphone so as to detect the sound by a difference signal between the output signal of the first microphone and an output signal of the second microphone. The delay element delays the output signal of the first microphone so as to satisfy relation 0.76≦D/Δr≦2.0 where D is amount of delay for the output signal of the first microphone while Δr is distance between the first and second microphones. The relation D/Δr≦2.0 can reduce far-field noise, while the relation 0.76≦D/Δr can increase the detection sensitivity to sound emitted from a null point. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20100226522 | Microphone Unit - A microphone unit comprises a vibratory diaphragm for detecting sound input through its first and second openings. The sound input through the first opening is guided to a front surface of the vibratory diaphragm while the sound input through the second opening is guided to a rear surface of the vibratory diaphragm so as to detect the sound by the vibration of the vibratory diaphragm. The microphone unit satisfies relation 0.76≦D/Δr≦2.0 where D is difference in time between the sound propagation time from the first opening to the front surface of the vibratory diaphragm and that from the second opening to the rear surface of the vibratory diaphragm, while Δr is distance between the first and second openings. The relation D/Δr≦2.0 can reduce far-field noise, while the relation 0.76≦D/Δr can increase the detection sensitivity to sound emitted from a null point. | 09-09-2010 |

| 20080318640 | Voice Input-Output Device and Communication Device - A voice input-output device includes a voice input section and a voice output section. The voice input section includes a microphone unit, the microphone unit including a housing that has an inner space, a partition member that is provided in the housing and divides the inner space into a first space and a second space, the partition member being at least partially formed of a diaphragm, and an electrical signal output circuit that outputs an electrical signal that is the first voice signal based on vibrations of the diaphragm, a first through-hole through which the first space communicates with an outer space of the housing and a second through-hole through which the second space communicates with the outer space being formed in the housing. The voice output section includes: an ambient noise detection section that detects ambient noise during a call based on the first voice signal; and a volume control section that controls volume of the speaker based on a degree of the detected ambient noise. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20080247586 | Microphone unit, close-talking voice input device, information processing system, and method of manufacturing microphone unit - A microphone unit includes: a housing which has an inner space; a partition member which is provided in the housing and divides the inner space into a first space and a second space, the partition member being at least partially formed of a diaphragm; and an electrical signal output circuit which outputs an electrical signal based on vibrations of the diaphragm. In the housing, a first through-hole through which the first space communicates with an outer space of the housing and a second through-hole through which the second space communicates with the outer space are formed. | 10-09-2008 |
