Andrea Obtains New Patent To Protect Its Beam Forming Technology

BOHEMIA, N.Y., July 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Andrea Electronics Corporation (OTCBB: ANDR), a leading developer of hardware and software microphone technologies, today announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 8,767,973 covering an audio enhancement technique known as beam forming. Cutting edge electronics manufacturers generally utilize three techniques for audio input enhancements: noise reduction, stereo microphone beam forming and acoustic echo cancellation. The techniques are used in different combinations to complement each other as necessary to achieve a flexible audio input system for a growing number of user applications. Andrea was the original architect of this system and has developed a patent portfolio around the three different types of algorithms that provide the functionality. The latest patent grant for the adaptive beam forming technology is further evidence of Andrea's continuing innovation and influence in this important area.
