ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17964818 titled 'ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic apparatus and controlling method that involves a camera, microphone, and processor to generate sounds of multiple channels based on input sound. Here are the key points:

  • The electronic apparatus includes a camera, microphone, and processor.
  • The processor identifies objects and their locations from the photographed image.
  • The input sound is classified based on its audio source.
  • The classified sound is allotted to the corresponding identified object.
  • The processor copies the classified sound and generates sounds of two channels.
  • Characteristics of the generated sounds are adjusted based on the audio source and location of the identified object.
  • The sounds of two channels, with adjusted characteristics, are mixed to generate a stereo sound.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Enhancing virtual reality experiences by providing realistic and immersive audio.
  • Improving video conferencing by allowing participants to hear audio from specific sources in a more spatially accurate manner.
  • Enhancing audio in gaming applications by providing more realistic and dynamic sound effects.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The technology solves the problem of accurately associating sounds with specific objects or sources in a visual scene.
  • It addresses the challenge of generating realistic and immersive audio experiences in various applications.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Provides a more realistic and immersive audio experience by accurately associating sounds with specific objects or sources.
  • Enhances the overall quality of audio in various applications, such as virtual reality, video conferencing, and gaming.
  • Allows for more spatially accurate audio representation, improving the user's perception and immersion.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic apparatus and/or a controlling method are provided. The electronic apparatus may include a camera for photographing an image, a microphone for receiving an input of a sound of a first channel, and a processor for generating sounds of a plurality of channels based on the input sound, wherein the processor is configured to identify an object and the location of the object from the photographed image, classify the input sound based on an audio source, and allot the sound to the corresponding identified object, copy the classified sound and generate sounds of two channels, adjust characteristics of the generated sounds of two channels based on the audio source allotted to the identified object and the location of the identified object, and mix the sounds of two channels wherein the characteristics were adjusted according to the audio source and generate a stereo sound of two channels.
