Abstract: A wireless sound-emitting device includes a housing adapted to be coupled to a wall at a source of electric power, a loudspeaker positioned at a periphery of the housing, a control module outputting an electric audio signal to the at least one loudspeaker, and a wireless communications module in electrical communication with the control module. The loudspeaker emits acoustic signals in a direction parallel to the wall, when the housing is coupled to the wall, with the acoustic signals reflecting off the wall. The device may produce a sound masking noise or play a sound recorded on an internal memory. The device may include an electric plug or be adapted to replace an electric outlet faceplate. The device may have electric pass-through outlets and may be powered by the source of electric power. The device may be controlled remotely, for example via an Internet of Things (IoT) platform.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, a sound masking system is used to produce a sound masking zone in the vicinity of a defined area, for example in an area surrounding a conference room, an area within a medical office, or an area within a place of worship. A screen of loudspeakers around the defined area is used to create the sound masking zone. An indicator light, outside the defined area and unique to the sound masking zone around the defined area, is used to indicate that the sound masking system is active or ramping up.

Abstract: A sound vibration excitation assembly, for producing direct field sound masking, paging and/or music, comprises a ceiling coupler configured to be coupled to a discrete area sound-absorbing ceiling surface comprising mineral fiber or fiberglass, and a vibration exciter that is both configured to be electrically coupled to one or more sources of an electrical sound signal and is coupled to the ceiling coupler to produce vibrations in the ceiling coupler in response to the electrical sound signal. Related sound systems and methods are provided.
