    摘要: A system and method for performing echo suppression on a server in browser-based online audio conferences without downloading or installing software on a participant's computing device is disclosed. Streams of audio communication data from the participants in an audio conference are received at the server. An echo suppression application determines the first party that speaks by analyzing the streams to locate speech data, and assigns that party as the “owner” of the audio channel. The speech data is sent to the other participants in the conference. The application then determines whether newly received audio from the owner of the channel is new speech; if so, then the party remains the owner of the channel, and the new speech data is also sent to the other parties in the conference. The channel is surrendered if no new speech is received from the owner in a defined period, and the next party that speaks becomes the new owner of the channel. The other audio data from the participants is replaced by silence.

    摘要: A circuit arrangement for controlling audio signal transmissions for a communications system that includes a microphone and a video camera. The arrangement comprises a video processor configured and arranged to receive a video signal from the video camera, detect movement of an object in the video signal, and provide a motion-indicating signal indicating movement relative to the object. An audio processor is coupled to the video processor and is configured and arranged to modify the audio signal to be transmitted responsive to the motion-indicating signal. In another embodiment, a video signal processor is configured and arranged to receive a video signal from the video camera, detect mouth movement of a person and provide a mouth-movement signal indicative of movement of the person's mouth. An echo-cancellation circuit is coupled to the video signal processor and configured and arranged to filter from an audio signal provided by the microphone sound energy output by the speaker responsive to the mouth-movement signal.

    摘要: A wireless user-interface method and arrangement having a light source and a circuit arrangement that detects the presence and position of the light source. A light source emits modulated light having a first modulation frequency that is captured by a camera circuit arrangement. A circuit arrangement uses relative pixel luminances and differences in pixel luminances between frames to detect the presence of modulated light from the light source. The position of the light source is tracked from frame to frame and the position information is output for use by application software or circuitry to direct movement of a pointer in a computer display, for example. Modulated light having a second modulation frequency from the light source is detected by the circuit arrangement and interpreted as selection of a control function, which is provided as output to application software or circuitry. The application uses the position of the light source along with control signals to identify an operation to perform.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for decomposing a set of even and odd pictures into low-band and high-band pictures respectively in a image decomposing unit, in which the even picture is used by at least two prediction motion compensators on which the output signal of each prediction motion compensator is scaled according to the number of prediction motion compensators. The method includes calculating the high-band picture by subtracting from the odd picture the scaled motion-compensated signals and using the high-band picture in the at least two update motion compensators, the output signal of each update motion compensator being scaled according to the number of update motion compensators. Finally, the low-band picture is calculated by adding the scaled update motion-compensated signals to the even picture.
