Appl. No.:

17/566441

Inventors:

- Portland OR, US
Benjamin Hanley Lewis - Portland OR, US
Christopher John Lewis - Portland OR, US
Gerald Hanley Lewis - Sagle ID, US

International Classification:

G08B 3/00
G08B 21/18
G08C 17/02

Abstract:

Embodiments described herein provide an animal acoustic augmentor (AAA) for an animal acoustic augmentation system. The AAA includes an audio system configured to generate audio proximal and/or for delivery to an ear of an animal and a logic device configured to communicate with and control operation of the audio system. The logic device is configured to detect an AAA trigger associated with operation of the AAA and/or the audio system and generate an animal-audible trigger response via the audio system of the AAA based, at least in part, on the detected AAA trigger, where the animal-audible trigger response includes a preprogrammed AAA trigger response stored within a memory of the AAA and/or a live AAA trigger response based, at least in part, on a control sequence and/or an owner command provided by a personal electronic device associated with the AAA and/or an acoustic environment of the animal.
