INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18575889 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM

The present technology involves an information processing device and method, as well as a program that facilitates the easy recognition of a speaker's voice. The device includes an information processing unit that generates virtual location information based on the orientation of a listener and the location of both the listener and the speaker in a virtual space. This allows the voice of the speaker to be localized at a specific location corresponding to the listener's orientation and location, as well as the speaker's location.

  • Information processing device designed to recognize a speaker's voice based on listener's orientation and location.
  • Utilizes virtual location information to localize the speaker's voice in a virtual space.
  • Enhances voice recognition in tele-communication systems.
  • Allows for personalized and immersive audio experiences for listeners.
  • Improves the overall quality of communication in various settings.

Potential Applications: - Tele-communication systems - Virtual reality environments - Video conferencing platforms - Language translation services - Voice-controlled devices

Problems Solved: - Difficulty in accurately recognizing a speaker's voice in relation to a listener's orientation and location. - Limited personalization and localization of audio content in communication systems. - Inefficient voice recognition technology in tele-communication devices.

Benefits: - Enhanced user experience in audio communication. - Improved accuracy in voice recognition. - Personalized and immersive audio experiences. - Increased efficiency in tele-communication systems. - Enhanced quality of communication in various settings.

Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Voice Recognition Technology for Tele-communication Systems This technology can be utilized in tele-communication devices, virtual reality platforms, and video conferencing systems to improve voice recognition accuracy and enhance user experience. It has the potential to revolutionize the way audio content is localized and personalized in communication systems, leading to increased efficiency and improved quality of communication.

Questions about Voice Recognition Technology: 1. How does the device determine the virtual location of the listener and speaker? The device uses orientation information to indicate the listener's orientation and set their virtual location, along with the location of the speaker, to localize the speaker's voice accordingly.

2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in real-world communication systems? Implementing this technology in real-world communication systems may face challenges related to compatibility, integration, and scalability across different platforms and devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present technology relates to an information processing device and method, and a program that allow the voice of a speaker to be easily recognized. The information processing device includes an information processing unit configured to generate, on the basis of orientation information indicating an orientation of a listener, virtual location information indicating a location of the listener in a virtual space, the location being set by the listener, and virtual location information of a speaker, a voice of the speaker localized at a location corresponding to the orientation and location of the listener and the location of the speaker. The present technology can be applied to a tele-communication system.
