Thus, when successfully paired or synchronized with the appropriate frequency or channel of loudspeaker 2.0 governed by computer module 2.5, the compatible computer, multimedia device, or smartphone D, seen in FIG. 4 will communicate wirelessly with loudspeaker 2.0. Once successfully synchronized, the user can further entertain a phone call, whether incoming or outgoing with the incorporated microphone 2.8 wirelessly, governed as well by computer module 2.5. The user may have then finished the session of physical activity and decide to continue use of loudspeaker 2.0. The user may pinch, with any combinations of fingers, speaker dock disengage switches 3.3 to unlock loudspeaker 2.0 from its locked state from armband assembly 1.0, on speaker dock 3.0, freeing loudspeaker 2.0 from the secured area from which it was docked, and allowing individual use of loudspeaker 2.0 solely and wirelessly. The user may place loudspeaker 2.0 on any flat surface and may keep loudspeaker 2.0 standing or erect, using the stand 5.3, which may assist in positioning loudspeaker 2.0.
Furthermore, the user may charge the internal battery 2.4 for future use with the communication power cable 2.7, allowing the connected communication power cable 2.7 to supply power to battery 2.4. Moreover, the user may also have the option to maintain loudspeaker 2.0 connected to communication power cable 2.7 for the benefit of allowing battery 2.4 to sustain a constant full charge, additionally may also relay digital information from the selected computer, multimedia device, or smartphone D, seen in FIG. 4 to loudspeaker 2.0 through communication power cable 2.7 likewise. After the user is finished, the user then manipulates power switch 2.9 to an open state on loudspeaker 2.0, thereby opening the circuit between loudspeaker 2.0 and battery 2.4, which terminates the emission of sound from loudspeaker 2.0. Moreover, the user may place armband assembly 1.0 on any limb or part of a person's body, preferably the arm, without the activation of loudspeaker 2.0. Loudspeaker 2.0 may be activated “on” or “off” while on armband assembly 1.0.
The foregoing description conveys the best understanding of the objectives and advantages of the present invention. Different embodiments may be made of the inventive concept of this invention. It is to be understood that all matter disclosed herein is to be interpreted merely as illustrative, and not in a limiting sense.
