26 results about "Audio filter" patented technology

An audio filter is a frequency dependent amplifier circuit, working in the audio frequency range, 0 Hz to beyond 20 kHz. Audio filters can amplify (boost), pass or attenuate (cut) some frequency ranges. Many types of filters exist for different audio applications including hi-fi stereo systems, musical synthesizers, sound effects, sound reinforcement systems, instrument amplifiers and virtual reality systems.

Spatial audio reproduction based on head-to-torso orientation

A media system and a method of using the media system to reproduce spatial audio based on head-to-torso orientation, are described. The method includes determining a head-to-source orientation and a head-to-torso orientation based on head orientation data generated by a head tracking device. Determining the head-to-torso orientation includes determining torso movements based on movements of the head. The torso can be determined to move when the head movements meet a head movement condition, such as a predetermined angle of movement or pattern of movement. A binaural audio filter that is based on a head-related transfer function corresponding to both the head-to-source orientation and the head-to-torso orientation is applied to an audio input signal to generate an audio output signal. The audio output signal is played to accurately recreate spatial audio having sounds emitted to the user by a sound source. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

A method for digital filter reconstruction for lossless audio

PendingCN122177143ASpeech analysisTime domainTransient vibration
The application discloses a digital filtering reconstruction method for lossless audio, and relates to the field of audio filtering reconstruction. Firstly, the transient vibration intensity of the segmented audio frame is extracted in real time to obtain a transient index value, and the transient index value is mapped into a window asymmetry factor by using a nonlinear control curve. According to the factor, a front half cycle attenuation compression and a rear half cycle stretching are applied to a reference window function to generate a dynamic asymmetric window and further obtain dynamic filter coefficients. Finally, the audio is weighted and convoluted by using the dynamic coefficients, and a cross-fading splicing technology is combined to eliminate frame boundary artifacts caused by dynamic adjustment. In this way, dynamic reconstruction can be realized only by relying on time-domain point-by-point modulation of a single set of filters, and the storage of a large number of filter banks or complex offline conversion requirements are completely eliminated.
