NOVEL METHOD OF IMPROVING THE RESTITUTION OF STEREOPHONIC MODULATIONS IN AUTOMOBILES
New method for improving the reproduction of stereophonic modulations in cars.
According to this method, in first step the level distortion in uncorrelated isobar mode is canceled first by means of the balance adjustment, in a second stage the center of the sound image is positioned at the center of the sound scene in the isobaric correlated mode in delaying the modulation feeding the loudspeaker closest to the conductor and in a third stage by canceling the stereophonic phase distortion in the isobaric mode correlated by means of a phase equalizer.
AUDIO PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Provided are an audio processing method and apparatus, and a storage medium, which relate to the technical field of artificial intelligence and, in particular, to the speech technical field. The specific implementation solution is as follows. In response to receiving to-be-processed audio, a target sounding direction corresponding to the to-be-processed audio is determined; direction sense reconstruction is performed on the to-be-processed audio according to a direction sense reconstruction filter corresponding to the target sounding direction to obtain target audio; and the target audio is output.
Binaural rendering for headphones using metadata processing
Embodiments are described for a method of rendering audio for playback through headphones comprising receiving digital audio content, receiving binaural rendering metadata generated by an authoring tool processing the received digital audio content, receiving playback metadata generated by a playback device, and combining the binaural rendering metadata and playback metadata to optimize playback of the digital audio content through the headphones.
Calibration State Variable
Example techniques involve a calibration state variable. An example implementation receives, via a network interface, an indication that the first playback device is calibrated. Based on receiving the indication that the first playback device is calibrated, the example implementation updates a calibration state variable to indicate that the first playback device is calibrated, wherein the calibration state variable is stored in the data storage. The example implementation sends, via the network interface, an indication of the updated calibration state variable to a second device.
LOUDNESS ADJUSTMENT FOR DOWNMIXED AUDIO CONTENT
Audio content coded for a reference speaker configuration is downmixed to downmix audio content coded for a specific speaker configuration. One or more gain adjustments are performed on individual portions of the downmix audio content coded for the specific speaker configuration. Loudness measurements are then performed on the individual portions of the downmix audio content. An audio signal that comprises the audio content coded for the reference speaker configuration and downmix loudness metadata is generated. The downmix loudness metadata is created based at least in part on the loudness measurements on the individual portions of the downmix audio content.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR EMBEDDING DATA IN MEDIA CONTENT
A method is provided for modifying a first media content item by superimposing a first set of data over a first audio event having an amplitude that satisfies a first threshold. The first audio event has a first audio profile, the first set of data has a second audio profile, playback of the second audio profile is configured to be masked by the first audio profile during playback of the first media content item, and the first set of data includes playlist information. The method includes transmitting, to a second electronic device, the modified first media content item.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR CONVERTING NUMBER OF AUDIO CHANNELS, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE OPERATING METHOD
An electronic device includes: an Application Processor (AP) including a CPU; and an audio processing unit configured to: receive an audio stream of M channels from the CPU, convert the M-channel audio stream into an N-channel audio stream, the N-channel being different from the M-channel, output the N-channel audio stream through an output device. The audio processing unit is further configured to: detect a connection with the external electronic device through an audio output interface; determine whether to stop the converting the M-channel audio stream into the N-channel audio stream, based on information received from the CPU; and transmit, via the audio output interface, the M-channel audio stream to the external electronic device in response to the determination of stopping the converting the M-channel audio stream into the N-channel audio stream.
SONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR REPELLING MOSQUITOES
Methods and devices for repelling mosquitoes may operate by generating the beats of fore and hind pairs of dragonfly wings, which may be dragonfly wing beats in the form of pressure waves. Such beats may be generated using digital or analog circuitry. The digital beats may be recordings of synthesized or enhanced beats of dragonfly wings beating. The device may take the form of a button that may be worn or otherwise carried by a user.
SIGNAL PROCESSING DEVICE
A signal processing device includes phase rotation units which rotate a phase of a signal A and generate two signals having a phase difference of θ, and a control unit which performs transition of θ over time. The control unit controls phases so that θ is approximately 0 degrees at a time point T0 and θ is approximately 180 degrees at a time point T1.
STEREO SOUND BOX AND STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
Provided in the present invention is a stereo sound box, including: a box body. Two sets of sound generating units are provided on a surface of the box body, correspondingly for a left sound channel and a right sound channel. Each set of sound generating units includes a low sound unit and at least one high sound unit. The low sound units of the two sets of sound generating units are arranged to mirror each other so as to neutralize the inertia of vibrations. The high sound units are arranged outside each low sound unit. In the described stereo sound box, high-fidelity low sound can be maintained even while the box body is kept light.
