INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING TERMINAL, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18024577 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING TERMINAL, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes an information processing device that is used in remote conferences. - The device includes a storage unit that stores Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF) data. - The HRTF data corresponds to different positions based on the listening position of the user. - The device also includes a sound image localization processing unit. - The sound image localization process uses the HRTF data to process sound data of the person speaking in the conference. - The processing unit adjusts the sound image localization based on the utterance situation of the participant. - The technology aims to improve the sound quality and localization in remote conferences. - The invention can be applied to computers or devices used for remote conferencing.
Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing device according to an aspect of the present technology includes a storage unit that stores HRTF data corresponding to a plurality of positions based on a listening position; and a sound image localization processing unit that performs a sound image localization process on sound data of an utterer by using the HRTF data according to an utterance situation of a participant participating in a conversation via a network. The present technology can be applied to a computer that performs remote conference.
