Abstract: In some embodiments, a method, apparatus and computer program for reducing noise from an audio signal captured by a drone (e.g., canceling the noise signature of a drone from the audio signal) using a model of noise emitted by the drone's propulsion system set, where the propulsion system set includes one or more propulsion systems, each of the propulsion systems including an electric motor, and wherein the noise reduction is performed in response to voltage data indicative of instantaneous voltage supplied to each electric motor of the propulsion system set. In some other embodiments, a method, apparatus and computer program for generating a noise model by determining the noise signature of at least one drone based upon a database of noise signals corresponding to at least one propulsion system and canceling the noise signature of the drone in an audio signal based upon the noise model.

Abstract: Embodiments are described for an adaptive audio system that processes audio data comprising a number of independent monophonic audio streams. One or more of the streams has associated with it metadata that specifies whether the stream is a channel-based or object-based stream. Channel-based streams have rendering information encoded by means of channel name; and the object-based streams have location information encoded through location expressions encoded in the associated metadata. A codec packages the independent audio streams into a single serial bitstream that contains all of the audio data. This configuration allows for the sound to be rendered according to an allocentric frame of reference, in which the rendering location of a sound is based on the characteristics of the playback environment (e.g., room size, shape, etc.) to correspond to the mixer's intent. The object position metadata contains the appropriate allocentric frame of reference information required to play the sound correctly using the available speaker positions in a room that is set up to play the adaptive audio content.

Abstract: Audio signals (201) are received. The audio signals include left and right surround channels (206). The audio signals are played back using far-field loudspeakers (101-108, 401-406) distributed around a space (111, 409) having a plurality of listener positions (112, 410). The left and right surround channels are played back by a pair of far-field loudspeakers (103, 106, 403, 405) arranged at opposite sides of the space having the plurality of listener positions. An audio component (208) coinciding with or approximating audio content common to the left and right surround channels is obtained. The audio component is played back using at least a pair of near-field transducers (109, 110, 407, 408) arranged at one of the listener positions. Associated systems (100, 400), methods (800) and computer program products are provided. Systems (300), methods (900) and computer program products providing a bitstream (303) comprising the audio signals and the audio component are also provided, as well as a computer-readable medium with data (700) representing such audio content.

Abstract: Improved tools for authoring and rendering audio reproduction data are provided. Some such authoring tools allow audio reproduction data to be generalized for a wide variety of reproduction environments. Audio reproduction data may be authored by creating metadata for audio objects. The metadata may be created with reference to speaker zones. During the rendering process, the audio reproduction data may be reproduced according to the reproduction speaker layout of a particular reproduction environment.

Abstract: Embodiments are described for a method and system of rendering and playing back spatial audio content using a channel-based format. Spatial audio content that is played back through legacy channel-based equipment is transformed into the appropriate channel-based format resulting in the loss of certain positional information within the audio objects and positional metadata comprising the spatial audio content. To retain this information for use in spatial audio equipment even after the audio content is rendered as channel-based audio, certain metadata generated by the spatial audio processor is incorporated into the channel-based data. The channel-based audio can then be sent to a channel-based audio decoder or a spatial audio decoder. The spatial audio decoder processes the metadata to recover at least some positional information that was lost during the down-mix operation by upmixing the channel-based audio content back to the spatial audio content for optimal playback in a spatial audio environment.

Abstract: Audio perception in local proximity to visual cues is provided. A device includes a video display, first row of audio transducers, and second row of audio transducers. The first and second rows can be vertically disposed above and below the video display. An audio transducer of the first row and an audio transducer of the second row form a column to produce, in concert, an audible signal. The perceived emanation of the audible signal is from a plane of the video display (e.g., a location of a visual cue) by weighing outputs of the audio transducers of the column. In certain embodiments, the audio transducers are spaced farther apart at a periphery for increased fidelity in a center portion of the plane and less fidelity at the periphery.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to systems, methods and apparatus for processing media content for reproduction by a first apparatus. The method includes obtaining pose information indicative of a position and/or orientation of a user. The pose information is transmitted to a second apparatus that provides the media content. The media content is rendered based on the pose information to obtain rendered media content. The rendered media content is transmitted to the first apparatus for reproduction. The present invention may include a first apparatus for reproducing media content and a second apparatus storing the media content. The first apparatus is configured to obtain pose information indicative and transmit the pose information to the second apparatus; and the second apparatus is adapted to: render the media content based on the pose information to obtain rendered media content; and transmit the rendered media content to the first apparatus for reproduction.

Abstract: Diffuse or spatially large audio objects may be identified for special processing. A decorrelation process may be performed on audio signals corresponding to the large audio objects to produce decorrelated large audio object audio signals. These decorrelated large audio object audio signals may be associated with object locations, which may be stationary or time-varying locations. For example, the decorrelated large audio object audio signals may be rendered to virtual or actual speaker locations. The output of such a rendering process may be input to a scene simplification process. The decorrelation, associating and/or scene simplification processes may be performed prior to a process of encoding the audio data.
