Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to spatial audio recording techniques and occlusion detection in audio processing.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact the overall user experience in virtual reality environments?
This technology can significantly enhance the immersion and realism of virtual reality experiences by providing more accurate spatial audio.
Are there any limitations to the occlusion detection and spatial filter selection process described in the patent application?
Further research may be needed to determine the effectiveness of the occlusion detection algorithm in various audio recording scenarios.
Original Abstract Submitted
systems and techniques are provided for performing spatial audio recording. for instance, a process can include detecting an occlusion for at least one audio frame of one or more audio frames associated with a spatial audio recording. during the spatial audio recording, the process can further include selecting, based on detection of the occlusion, at least one of an occluded spatial filter for the one or more audio frames or a non-occluded spatial filter for the one or more audio frames.
