Audio Video Synchronization - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240251124 titled 'Audio Video Synchronization
The patent application describes systems, methods, and apparatuses for detecting synchronization errors between audio and video signals. Scene changes can be identified using anchor frames, and offsets between a scene change in a video signal and a decrease in audio level or a burst of high audio level in the audio signal may indicate a synchronization error.
- Detection of synchronization errors between audio and video signals
- Identification of scene changes based on anchor frames
- Analysis of offsets between video scene changes and audio signal variations
- Use of reduced audio levels or bursts of high audio levels to detect synchronization errors
Potential Applications: - Media production and broadcasting - Video editing and post-production - Live streaming and video conferencing technology
Problems Solved: - Ensuring audio and video signals are synchronized - Improving the quality of multimedia content - Enhancing user experience in media consumption
Benefits: - Enhanced audiovisual synchronization - Improved viewer engagement - Higher quality multimedia content production
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Audio-Video Synchronization Technology for Media Production" This technology can be used in film and television production, online streaming platforms, video editing software, and video conferencing systems. It can help content creators deliver high-quality audiovisual experiences to their audiences, leading to increased viewer satisfaction and engagement.
Questions about Audio-Video Synchronization: 1. How does this technology improve the overall viewing experience for audiences? This technology ensures that audio and video signals are perfectly synchronized, resulting in a seamless and immersive viewing experience for audiences.
2. What are the key advantages of using anchor frames to detect scene changes in video signals? Anchor frames provide reference points for identifying scene changes accurately, allowing for precise synchronization between audio and video signals.
Original Abstract Submitted
systems, methods, and apparatuses are described for detecting synchronization errors between audio and video signals. scene changes may be detected based on anchor frames. offsets between a scene change in a video signal and a reduced audio level or burst of high audio level in the audio signal may indicate a synchronization error.
