SIGNAL PROCESSING APPARATUS FOR GENERATING VIRTUAL VIEWPOINT VIDEO IMAGE, SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18298966 Titled 'SIGNAL PROCESSING APPARATUS FOR GENERATING VIRTUAL VIEWPOINT VIDEO IMAGE, SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a signal processing apparatus that can simulate sound in a virtual space. It acquires impulse responses from different directions in the virtual space, corrects them based on the virtual viewpoint's position, and generates acoustic signals for those directions. This allows for a realistic and immersive audio experience in virtual environments.


Original Abstract Submitted

A signal processing apparatus acquires, in a case where a sound source is located at a first position of a virtual space, impulse responses for a plurality of directions related to sound incident at a second position different from the first position in the virtual space, corrects the acquired impulse responses for the plurality of directions, according to a position of a virtual viewpoint, and generates acoustic signals for the plurality of directions at the position of the virtual viewpoint, based on an input sound source signal and the corrected impulse responses for of the plurality of directions.
