DYNAMIC AUDIO FEEDS FOR WEARABLE AUDIO DEVICES IN AUDIOVISUAL CONFERENCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17944885 titled 'DYNAMIC AUDIO FEEDS FOR WEARABLE AUDIO DEVICES IN AUDIOVISUAL CONFERENCES
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the abstract involves an audiovisual conferencing system that receives audio information from local and remote participants, and selectively provides aggregate audio feeds to the local participants based on their location criteria.
- The system receives audio information from a first local participant and a second local participant, as well as from a remote participant.
- Based on the location criteria, the system provides an aggregate audio feed to the first local participant that includes audio from the remote participant but not from the second local participant.
- Similarly, the system provides an aggregate audio feed to the second local participant that includes audio from the remote participant but not from the first local participant.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in virtual meetings, online classes, and remote collaboration scenarios where selective audio feeds based on location criteria are beneficial.
Problems Solved
1. Overlapping audio from multiple local participants can be distracting in audiovisual conferencing. 2. Providing selective audio feeds based on location criteria can improve the overall audio experience for participants.
Benefits
1. Enhanced audio clarity for participants. 2. Improved focus and attention during audiovisual conferencing sessions. 3. Customized audio feeds based on location criteria for a better user experience.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized Audio Feeds in Virtual Meetings: Enhancing Participant Experience and Engagement
Original Abstract Submitted
A method may include, at an audiovisual conferencing system receiving first audio information captured by a first audio device associated with a first local participant of a group of local participants, receiving second audio information captured by a second audio device associated with a second local participant, and receiving third audio information from a remote participant. The method may further include, in accordance with a determination that the first local participant satisfies a location criteria, providing a first aggregate audio feed to the first audio device of the first local participant that includes the third audio information from the remote participant and omits the second audio information from the second local participant, and providing a second aggregate audio feed to the second audio device of the second local participant that includes the third audio information from the remote participant and omits the first audio information from the first local participant.
