Audio Image Data Integration via Descriptor Correlation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current technologies lack the ability to effectively integrate and personalize user experiences by linking audio data with image data, limiting the opportunity to enhance the appreciation of personal experiences captured in images with complementary audio content.
Innovation Solution
A system that receives image and audio data items, generates or associates descriptors with them, and selects image data items based on correlations with audio data descriptors for synchronized playback, allowing for personalized and relevant audio-visual experiences.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If users access large audio libraries and image data through separate devices and services, then the quantity and variety of content available is improved, but the ability to integrate and personalize user experiences across these technologies deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines audio data and image data into a unified data structure with shared descriptors, enabling integrated processing and personalized experiences across both media types simultaneously
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses universal descriptors that can represent both audio and image data, allowing the same processing mechanisms to handle multiple types of content and enable cross-media integration
2Ease of operation
If users capture and store large amounts of image data using convenient devices, then the ease of capturing personal moments is improved, but the opportunity to link image data with complementary data types deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
Descriptors serve as intermediaries that bridge image data and audio data, enabling automatic association between photographs and music or other audio content without requiring manual user effort
3Quantity of substance
If streaming music services provide access to large remote libraries, then the variety of audio content is improved, but the opportunity to integrate audio libraries with personal lives and experiences deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system analyzes user interactions, playback history, and personal data to generate feedback that personalizes audio and image recommendations, making the large content libraries more relevant to individual users' lives and experiences
Data Source
AI summary
Techniques for integrating audio data and image data are described herein. A plurality of image data items associated with a first user account and a plurality of image data descriptors, each associated with at least one of the plurality of image data items may be received. A first audio data item, having at least one associated audio data descriptor, may be selected for playing. Based at least in part on a comparison of the at least one audio data descriptor and the plurality of image data descriptors, at least a first image may be selected from the plurality image data items for presentation with the first audio data item. During at least part of the playing of the first audio data item, the first image may be presented.
