Head-mounted speaker array

Abstract:

The described implementations of a head-mounted speaker array apparatus ("HMSAA") include speaker arrays having one or more speakers that, when the HMSAA is worn on the head of a listener, are positioned forward of the pinna of each ear of the listener. For example, the HMSAA may include a first speaker array that is coupled to a frame that, when worn by a listener, positions the first speaker array forward of a first pinna of a first ear of the listener. A second speaker array may also be coupled to the frame at a position that, when the frame is worn by the listener, the second speaker array is positioned forward of a second pinna of the second ear of the listener.
