主权项 1. An intelligent hub for interfacing with other devices and performing smart audio or video source processing comprising: a bluetooth radio for transmitting bluetooth beacons based upon first beacon information; a Wi-Fi radio for communicating with remote servers; at least one input source port for receiving audio and video input signals and providing at least one source signal; a primary output port for receiving a primary processed signal and providing a primary output signal to an audio or a video device; a multimedia processor for receiving the at least one source signal and to provide the primary processed signal to the primary output port and to provide primary source information wherein the multimedia processor is configured to: process the at least one source signal to produce the primary processed signal, process the at least one source signal to produce the primary source information for use in determining a primary identity of a content of the at least one source signal; a processor configured to: provide the first beacon information to the Bluetooth radio, receive the primary source information from the multimedia processor, interface with the Wi-Fi radio, wherein the intelligent hub identifies a first user in proximity associated with a first mobile device, as a result of a determination that the first mobile device is present in a specific area proximal to the intelligent hub, based upon both (a) the first mobile device detecting the bluetooth beacons and upon (b) detection of an acoustic signal passed between the intelligent hub and the first mobile device, wherein the intelligent hub determines first profile settings associated with the first user, wherein the intelligent hub causes related information to be communicated to the first mobile device, said related information concerning the primary source identity, and based upon the first profile settings; and further wherein a plurality of acoustic signals are detected by the first mobile device for use in equalization, and wherein the plurality of acoustic signals comprise differing codes transmitted from each of a plurality of loud speakers.
