Aerielle's Tiny Wireless Music Transmitter Granted Design Patent

The AudioBUG(TM) Recognized for Its Unique Design

CUPERTINO, Calif., Aug. 20 -- Aerielle Group International, Inc., the inventor of miniature wireless technology and products, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office has issued U.S. Patent D478,057 to Aerielle for their industrial design of its portable music transmitter called the AudioBUG.

The AudioBUG allows consumers to listen to their personal CD or MP3 player without the need for wired headphones or expensive automotive CD changers. Customers plug the miniature device into the headphone jack of their player, tune any nearby radio to the corresponding station -- including an FM radio headset or car stereo -- allowing them to listen to their favorite music in full stereo sound without cumbersome wires.

Aerielle's CEO, Art Cohen, said, "We are pleased that our flagship product, the AudioBUG, has been awarded this patent. Our team has worked hard to provide revolutionary uses for our technology that consumers want and package it in ways that they will love."

Aerielle's technology and products are available for license from Competitive Technologies, Inc. of Fairfield, CT. Those interested in licensing Aerielle technology should call CTT at 203-255-6044.
