The present technology relates to an information processing device and a method, and a program capable of improving creation efficiency of content.

An information processing device includes a determination unit that, in a case where time-series display information regarding an audio signal of each of a plurality of tracks is arranged and displayed, determines a display sequence of the display information of the plurality of tracks or a time position of a marker indicating switching of a scene in the audio signal of the plurality of tracks on the basis of the audio signal of each of the plurality of tracks or audio related information regarding each of the plurality of the audio signals. The present technology can be applied to a creation tool for content.

A method of capturing free viewpoint content at a location includes recording video on each of a plurality of portable video recording devices at the location; each portable video recording device detecting a wireless synchronisation signal transmitted at the location; and each portable video recording device periodically adding a timestamp to its respective recorded video; where the timestamp is responsive to the detected wireless synchronisation signal, thereby enabling synchronisation of a plurality of recorded videos responsive to the timestamps.

This information processing apparatus includes displaying video content on a first display region in a display section as a first video, displaying the above-mentioned video content on a second display region in the above-mentioned display section as a second video delayed from the above-mentioned first video by a predetermined time, and setting a first tag inputted by a user into the above-mentioned first video and a second tag inputted by the above-mentioned user into the above-mentioned second video as tags for the above-mentioned video content.

The described techniques relate to a simulation system that multiplexes sensor data from multiple sensors and outputs the multiplexed sensor data in channels corresponding to the multiple sensors to appropriate vehicle systems at an appropriate time based on encoded timestamp data. In examples, a multiplexer may receive sensor datasets associated with different sensors. The multiplexer may encode the different sensor datasets with timestamp data and supplemental data to generate an encoded dataset. The multiplexer may output the encoded dataset to a video output port to transmit the encoded dataset to a demultiplexer. The demultiplexer receives the encoded dataset from the video output port, and separates the encoded dataset into channels corresponding to the sensors from which the sensor data was received. The demultiplexer may output the datasets in the respective channels at a time (or times) indicated in the timestamp data and according to the supplemental data.

Disclosed are systems and methods for improving image recognition by using information from sensor data. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving one or more sensor records, the sensor records representing timestamped sensor data collected by a sensor recording device; selecting an event based on the sensor records; identifying a time associated with the event; retrieving a plurality of timestamped video frames; synchronizing the sensor records and the video frames, wherein synchronizing the sensor records and the video frames comprises synchronizing the timestamped sensor data with individual frames of the timestamped video frames according to a common timeframe; and selecting a subset of video frames from the plurality of timestamped video frames based on the selected event.

An electronic apparatus includes an input unit configured to input a time code from an external device, a determination unit configured to determine whether or not a time address of the time code input from the input unit is advancing, a recording unit configured to record a video signal, and a control unit configured to control to cause the recording unit to start recording of the video signal in a case that it is determined by the determination unit that the time address is advancing.

Software is provided to collect events that transpire during an event. Captured video of the event can then be aligned to the events by calculating an offset between timestamps provided by the devices used to capture the action data and film data. A video clip can be sourced to review events that occurred.

Power reduction through clock management techniques are disclosed. In one aspect, the clock management is applied to a clock signal on a SOUNDWIRE™ communication bus. In particular, a control system associated with a master device on the communication bus may evaluate frequency requirements of audio streams on the communication bus and select a lowest possible clock frequency that meets the frequency requirements. Lower clock frequencies result in fewer clock transitions and result in a net power saving relative to higher clock frequencies. In the event of a clock frequency change, the master device communicates the clock frequency that will be used prospectively to slave devices on the communication bus, and all devices transition to the new frequency at the same frame boundary. In addition to the power savings, exemplary aspects of the present disclosure do not impact an active audio stream.

A method and an apparatus for playing back recorded video from a temporal position within a temporal range of the recorded video is disclosed. The recorded video including intra frames and inter frames and the recorded video including video sequences having different frame rates. The method comprises receiving a request for playing back the recorded video from a specific temporal position recorded in the recorded video, identifying an intra frame at an earlier temporal position in the recorded video than the specific temporal position received in the request, playing back the recorded video in a first mode from the identified intra frame, and playing back the recorded video in a second mode from the specific temporal position in the recorded video when the playing back of the recorded video in the first mode have arrived at the specific temporal position of in the recorded video.
