SPECIFYING LOUDNESS IN AN IMMERSIVE AUDIO PACKAGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240329915 titled 'SPECIFYING LOUDNESS IN AN IMMERSIVE AUDIO PACKAGE
The patent application describes a method for generating an audio package that includes multiple substreams of audio data and associated loudness parameters.
- The method involves generating an audio stream with a first substream and a second substream of audio data.
- It also includes generating a first loudness parameter for the playback of the first substream and a second loudness parameter for the playback of the second substream.
- The audio package created contains identifications for the audio data, as well as a codec agnostic container that includes the loudness parameters.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in audio streaming services to ensure consistent loudness levels between different audio tracks. - It could also be applied in audio editing software to help users manage and control the loudness of different audio elements in a project.
Problems Solved: - Inconsistent loudness levels between audio tracks can be a common issue in audio playback, and this method helps address that problem. - By including loudness parameters in the audio package, users can have more control over the playback experience.
Benefits: - Improved user experience with more consistent audio playback. - Enhanced audio editing capabilities with integrated loudness parameters.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Audio Streaming Technology for Consistent Loudness Levels" This technology could be valuable for audio streaming platforms, audio editing software companies, and multimedia production studios looking to enhance their audio quality and user experience.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the user experience in audio playback? 2. What are the potential implications of integrating loudness parameters into audio packages?
Original Abstract Submitted
a method including generating an audio stream including a first substream as first audio data and a second substream as second audio data, generating a first loudness parameter associated with playback of the first substream, generating a second loudness parameter associated with playback of the second substream, and generating an audio package including an identification corresponding to the first audio data, an identification corresponding to the second audio data, and a codec agnostic container including the first loudness parameter, and the second loudness parameter.
