Abstract

In order to achieve an enhanced audio experience, audio information, for example a movie soundtrack having binaural components, may be stored on a mobile device prior to the beginning of a movie presentation in a theater. Responsive to an audio sync signal presented to the mobile device, the audio information may be played back from the mobile device in a manner synchronized to display of the movie on a theater screen. The audio sync signal may be a high-frequency signal emitted by a loudspeaker in the theater. The audio information may be customized for a user. For example, via use of a binaural audio system, a user of a first mobile device may experience a movie presentation in a theater in a first language, and user of a second mobile device may experience the same movie presentation in the theater in a second language.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to audio recording and playback, and more particularly to systems and methods for capturing and rendering synchronized audio, such as binaural audio. Background technique [0002] Conventional audio capture and reproduction methods have remained at their core largely unchanged for a long time. Audio data is captured via one or more microphones, stored on or in a recording medium, and then played back via one or more speakers. While such systems and related technologies have become increasingly ubiquitous, powerful, compact, and energy efficient, they generally do not allow simultaneous mass audio customization, nor scalable methods for interacting with audiences. Accordingly, there remains a need for improved audio systems and / or tools. For example, systems and methods capable of acquiring, delivering, and synchronizing binaural audio remain desirable. Contents of the invention [0003] In an exemplary embod...
