Place search by audio signals
The present disclosure provides systems and methods that provides users with information pertaining to the audio properties at one or more points of interest. A database associated the audio properties with the points of interest is built using audio input received from devices at the points of interest. The device may determine that audio properties associated with the received audio input. The audio properties may determine a type of background noise and/or a volume of the background noise. If the type of background noise is music, the audio properties may further include a music genre, a title of a song, whether the music is recorded or there is a live band, etc. The audio properties associated with the point of interest may be updated in a database real time.
Enabling rendering, for consumption by a user, of spatial audio content
An apparatus comprising: means for causing selection of spatial audio content in dependence upon a position of a user in a virtual space; • means for causing rendering, for consumption by the user, of the selected spatial audio content including a first spatial audio content; • means for causing, after user consumption of the first spatial audio content, recording of data relating to the first spatial audio content; • means for using, at a later time, the recorded data to detect a new event relating to the first spatial audio content, the new event comprises that the first spatial audio content has been adapted for which a new spatial content is created, for example in the form of a limited preview; and • means for providing a user-selectable option to enable rendering, for consumption by the user, of the first spatial audio content by rendering a simplified sound object representative, which can be a downmix or clustered audio objects.

Centrally controlling communication at a venue
One example may include a method that includes receiving, at a presentation server, an audio data signal from a mobile device located in a presentation space, identifying a mobile device identification characteristic of the mobile device based on the received audio data signal, determining a mobile device location via a location determination procedure, and playing the audio signal via a loudspeaker.
System and method for socially connecting people using musical tastes and audio livestreams
A system and method that determines the musical tastes of a plurality of users and subsequently socially connects said plurality of users using said musical tastes is provided. The system also allows a first user to livestream a single audio data source in way such that a plurality of secondary users may access said single audio data source over a network. This may be accomplished by allowing host user to stream music by selecting audio data associated with their user profile via the user interface. The host user may then select a function of the user interface that instructs the system to livestream the audio data over a network. Guest users may access the livestream using functions of the user interface of the system, and the audio data may be presented to the guest users via a display.

SEARCHING SYSTEM, SEARCHING UNIT, SEARCHING METHOD, DISPLAYING METHOD FOR SEARCH RESULTS, TERMINAL UNIT, INPUTTING UNIT, AND RECORD MEDIUM
A searching system for searching contents that were broadcast, the searching system having an inputting unit, a searching unit, and a terminal unit is disclosed, wherein the inputting unit comprises a first storing means for storing information representing at least time at which contents were broadcast corresponding to a predetermined operation, and a first communicating means for transmitting the information representing time stored in the storing means to an external unit, wherein the searching unit comprises a second storing means for correlatively storing information representing contents and broadcast time thereof, and a searching means for searching information representing the contents stored in the second storing means corresponding to the info nation representing time, and wherein the terminal unit comprises a second communicating means for receiving the information representing time transmitted from the inputting unit through the first communicating means, a third communicating means for transmitting the information representing time received by the second communicating means and receiving search results transmitted from the searching unit, and a first displaying means for displaying the information representing time received by the second communicating means and the search results by the searching unit.
Automated speech-to-text processing and analysis of call data apparatuses, methods and systems
The present invention discloses a system, apparatus, and method that obtains audio and metadata information from voice calls, generates textual transcripts from those calls, and makes the resulting data searchable via a user interface. The system converts audio data from one or more sources (such as a telecommunications provider) into searchable usable text transcripts. One use of which is law enforcement and intelligence work. Another use relates to call centers to improve quality and track customer service history. Searches can be performed for callers, callees, keywords, and/or other information in calls across the system. The system can also generate automatic alerts based on callers, callees, keywords, phone numbers, and/or other information. Further the system generates and provides analytic information on the use of the phone system, the semantic content of the calls, and the connections between callers and phone numbers called, which can aid analysts in detecting patterns of behavior, and in looking for patterns of equipment use or failure.

Centrally controlling communication at a venue
One example may include a method that includes initiating an audio recording to capture audio data, comparing the audio data received from a microphone of a mobile device to an audio data range, determining whether the audio data is above an optimal level based on a result of the comparison, and queuing the audio data in an audio data queue when the audio data is above the optimal level.
