SYSTEM FOR DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTING THE GAIN STRUCTURE OF SOUND SOURCES CONTAINED WITHIN ONE OR MORE INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION ZONES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240381026 titled 'SYSTEM FOR DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTING THE GAIN STRUCTURE OF SOUND SOURCES CONTAINED WITHIN ONE OR MORE INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION ZONES
The system described in the patent application is designed to intelligently manage the gain of sound sources within priority zones in a 3D space, as well as adjacent to the zone boundaries. By utilizing information on the location and signal level of sound sources both inside and outside the priority zones, the system aims to optimize the audio gain structure of desired sources within the priority zones while minimizing the gain structure of undesired sources in low priority zones.
- The system assigns all available virtual microphones in the 3D space to either inclusion or exclusion zone configurations to track and monitor all sound sources regardless of their position in the space.
- It uses sound source location and signal level information to adjust the gain of sound sources within priority zones and near zone boundaries.
- The system aims to enhance the audio experience by prioritizing desired sound sources and reducing the impact of undesired sources in the space.
- By dynamically adjusting the gain structure based on the location and level of sound sources, the system optimizes the overall audio quality within the 3D space.
- This technology can be applied in various settings such as concert venues, conference rooms, virtual reality environments, and home entertainment systems.
Questions about Intelligent Zone Gain Management System:
1. How does the system differentiate between desired and undesired sound sources within the priority zones?
- The system uses sound source location and signal level information to determine the priority of each source and adjust the gain accordingly.
2. What are the potential benefits of implementing this system in a virtual reality environment?
- By optimizing the audio gain structure, the system can enhance the immersive experience for users in virtual reality environments.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system is provided for intelligent and optimized zone gain management of sound sources within priority (inclusion) zones and adjacent to the priority (inclusion) zone boundaries of the 3d space by using sound source location and signal level information of sound sources from both inside the inclusion zone and outside the inclusion zone in the exclusion zone for the purpose of optimizing the audio gain structure of desired sound sources located in priority (inclusion) zones and minimizing the gain structure of undesired sound sources in low priority (exclusion) zones. the system utilizes all virtual microphones in the 3d space by preferably assigning all available virtual microphones to either an inclusion zone or exclusion zone configuration for the purpose of tracking and monitoring all sound sources in the space regardless of their position in the 3d space.
