Visualization and Customization of Sound Space - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240340603 titled 'Visualization and Customization of Sound Space
The abstract describes an audio system that visualizes and customizes a sound space based on detected sound signals and their directions. It provides a graphical user interface (GUI) to display the sound space with visualizations corresponding to the sound signals' directions. Users can interact with the GUI to modify parameters of specific sound signals, which the system then plays with the modifications.
- Audio system for visualizing and customizing sound space
- Detects sound signals and determines their directions
- Associates sound signals with visualizations on a GUI
- GUI displays sound space based on visualizations and directions
- Users can modify parameters of specific sound signals through the GUI
- System plays sound signals with modifications based on user interactions
Potential Applications: - Home entertainment systems - Virtual reality and gaming environments - Audio production and mixing studios
Problems Solved: - Enhances user experience by visualizing sound space - Allows for customization of sound parameters - Provides interactive control over sound signals
Benefits: - Immersive audio experience - Personalized sound settings - Easy-to-use interface for modifying audio parameters
Commercial Applications: "Interactive Audio Visualization System for Home Entertainment and Gaming"
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the audio system determine the directions of sound signals? 2. What types of visualizations are available for users to associate with sound signals?
Original Abstract Submitted
an audio system for visualizing and customizing a sound space. the audio system detects sound signals and determines directions of the sound signals. the audio system associates each of the sound signals with a visualization, and provides a graphical user interface (gui) to display a sound space based on the visualizations and the directions of the sound signals. the visualizations are placed at positions on the gui corresponding to the directions of the respective sound signals relative to a user. the gui also includes an interactive element configured to receive a user interaction for modifying a parameter of a particular sound signal. responsive to receiving the user interaction, the audio system modifies the parameter of the particular sound signal, and plays the sound signals with the particular sound signal modified based on the user interaction.
