METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FRAME-ACCURATE HAPTICS INTERCHANGE FILE FORMAT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233498 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FRAME-ACCURATE HAPTICS INTERCHANGE FILE FORMAT
The patent application describes a method for signaling a haptic JSON interchange file format (HJIF) by processing it into a binary file format for distribution in a bitstream. The HJIF file contains multiple haptic channels, each defined by a channel description including relative position and haptic position parameters specified on a scale. The haptic effects and keyframes of each channel are synchronized with video or audio in the bitstream based on the scale.
- Haptic JSON interchange file format (HJIF) processing into binary format

Original Abstract Submitted
a method of signaling a haptic java script object notation (json) interchange file format (hjif) file comprises processing the hjif file into a binary file format for distribution in a bitstream, in which the hjif file comprises a plurality of haptic channels, in which each haptic channel from the plurality of haptic channels is defined by a channel description that comprises a relative position parameter that specifies a relative position of a keyframe included in the data and a haptic position parameter of a haptic effect, in which the relative position parameter and the haptic position parameter are specified in accordance with a scale, and in which the haptic effect and keyframe of each channel are synchronized with video or audio included in the bitstream based on the scale.
