Abstract:
An apparatus comprising means for analysing at least one speech input to determine one or more expressions within the at least one speech input: and controlling at least one audio output signal dependent upon the one or more expression, wherein the at least one speech input is independent of the at least one audio output signal and wherein the controlling of the at least one audio output signal is dependent upon determining the expression within the at least one speech input.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate user interaction with, such as modification of, respective audio objects. An example method may include causing a multimedia file to be presented that includes at least two images. The images are configured to provide animation associated with respective audio objects and representative of a direction of the respective audio objects. The method may also include receiving user input in relation to an animation associated with an audio object or the direction of the audio object represented by an animation. The method may further include causing replay of the audio object for which the user input was received to be modified.
Abstract:
Devices such a printer 4, television 3 and car door lock 2 are controlled wirelessly by a controller 5 which may consist of eye tracking glasses that detect the gaze angle of the user also include an orientation detector that receives rf packets from the devices, from which the orientation of the device can be detected. Control of the devices is performed wirelessly when the detected orientation of the device and the gaze detection angle adopt a predetermined relationship, for example when they become aligned.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprising an audio detector configured to analyse a first audio signal to determine at least one audio source, wherein the first audio signal is generated from the sound-field in the environment of the apparatus; an audio generator configured to generate at least one further audio source; and a mixer configured to mix the at least one audio source and the at least one further audio source such that the at least one further audio source is associated with the at least one audio source.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprising: an input configured to receive at least two groups of at least two audio signals; a first audio former configured to generate a first formed audio signal from a first of the at least two groups of at least two audio signals; a second audio former configured to generate a second formed audio signal from the second of the at least two groups of at least two audio signals; an audio analyzer configured to analyze the first formed audio signal and the second formed audio signal to determine at least one audio source and an associated audio source signal; and an audio signal synthesizer configured to generate at least one output audio signal based on the at least one audio source and the associated audio source signal.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprising: a first audio signal analyzer configured to analyze a first audio signal to determine at least one audio source, wherein the at least one audio source has a virtual location; a second audio signal analyzer configured to analyze a second audio signal to determine at least one localized audio source, wherein the second audio signal is generated from the apparatus audio environment; and a repositioner configured to reposition the virtual location of the at least one audio source dependent on the at least one localized audio source.
