ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR SYNCHRONIZING OUTPUT OF AUDIO AND VIDEO AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240021174 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR SYNCHRONIZING OUTPUT OF AUDIO AND VIDEO AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device and a control method for synchronizing audio and video outputs. The device includes memory, display circuitry, audio circuitry, and a processor. The processor is connected to the memory, display component, audio component, and feedback circuitry. It transmits signals related to video and audio to the feedback circuitry and obtains a time difference between the switching of voltage levels in the signals based on a feedback signal. The processor then controls the output timing of the audio or video based on this time difference.

  • The electronic device includes memory, display circuitry, audio circuitry, and a processor.
  • The processor is connected to the memory, display component, audio component, and feedback circuitry.
  • It transmits signals related to video and audio to the feedback circuitry.
  • The processor obtains a time difference between the switching of voltage levels in the signals based on a feedback signal.
  • It controls the output timing of the audio or video based on this time difference.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Audio and video synchronization in multimedia devices such as televisions, computers, and smartphones.
  • Virtual reality and augmented reality systems to ensure accurate synchronization between audio and visual elements.
  • Live streaming platforms to maintain synchronization between audio and video feeds.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Eliminates audio and video lag or delay, providing a seamless viewing and listening experience.
  • Ensures accurate synchronization between audio and video, preventing any mismatch or desynchronization.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved user experience with synchronized audio and video outputs.
  • Enhanced immersion in multimedia content, virtual reality, and augmented reality experiences.
  • Higher quality live streaming with accurate synchronization between audio and video feeds.


Original Abstract Submitted

an electronic device and a control method for synchronizing audio and video outputs are disclosed. the electronic device includes: at least one memory, at least one display component including display circuitry, at least one audio component including audio circuitry, and at least one processor electrically connected to at least some of the memory, the display component, and the audio component. the processor is electrically connected to a feedback circuitry and configured to transmit a first signal related to video and a second signal related to audio to the feedback circuitry. the processor is configured to obtain, based on a feedback signal received from the feedback circuitry, a time difference in between a first time point at which a voltage level of the first signal is switched, and a second time point at which a voltage level of the second signal is switched. the processor is configured to control an output timing of the audio or the video based on the time difference.
