AUGMENTING ENVIRONMENTAL AUDIO BASED ON VIDEO CHARACTERISTICS
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250106356 titled 'AUGMENTING ENVIRONMENTAL AUDIO BASED ON VIDEO CHARACTERISTICS
Original Abstract Submitted
some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for augmenting and/or minimizing environment audio based on video characteristics associated with a video communication session facilitated by a video communications application. the video characteristics include activation of an outward facing camera. in response to detecting the activation of an outward facing camera, an electronic device augments an environment audio stream associated with the video communication session and attenuates a first person audio stream associated with the video communication session such that the user listening to the audio stream hears audio that has the environmental audio emphasized while the first person audio is deemphasized. in response to detecting the activation of an inward facing camera, the device emphasizes the first person audio stream and deemphasizes the environmental audio stream.
