Abstract

Learning personal audio systems and methods are disclosed. A learning personal audio system characterizes the digitized ambient sound so as to generate feature data for the digitized ambient sound, instructs a network interface to transmit the feature data to the remote server, requests one or more appropriate sound profiles from the remote server based upon the feature data, receives one or more selected sound profiles, selected by the remote server based upon the feature data, and initiates processing of the digitized ambient sound based upon the one or more selected sound profiles received from the remote server to generate digitized processed sound. The one or more selected sound profiles for the learning personal audio system are based upon sound profiles which are manually selected by a plurality of other users of personal audio systems similar to the learning personal audio system.
