SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING HAPTIC FEEDBACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240293735 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING HAPTIC FEEDBACK
The abstract describes a system for providing haptic feedback accompanying media content. The system includes an input unit to obtain audio components, a classification unit to determine the most prominent audio component representing a scene, and a haptics generation unit to generate haptic signals based on the prominent audio component.
- Input unit gathers audio components of media content
- Classification unit identifies the most prominent audio component representing a scene
- Haptics generation unit creates haptic signals based on the prominent audio component
Potential Applications: - Enhancing virtual reality experiences - Improving accessibility for individuals with visual impairments - Enhancing gaming experiences with tactile feedback
Problems Solved: - Lack of haptic feedback in media content - Limited accessibility for visually impaired individuals - Inadequate immersion in virtual reality experiences
Benefits: - Enhanced user experience - Improved accessibility - Increased immersion in media content
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Media Content with Haptic Feedback: Commercial Applications and Market Implications" This technology can be utilized in virtual reality gaming, movie theaters, and accessibility devices for visually impaired individuals. The market for haptic feedback technology is expected to grow as the demand for immersive experiences increases.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve accessibility for individuals with visual impairments? 2. What are the potential applications of haptic feedback in virtual reality experiences?
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in haptic technology and its applications in media content for an immersive user experience.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system for providing haptic feedback accompanying media content, the system comprising: an input unit configured to obtain one or more audio components of the media content; a classification unit configured to determine, from the one or more audio components, a most prominent audio component representative of a scene in the media content, and a haptics generation unit configured to generate an output haptics signal based on the most prominent audio component.
