US 10,950,250 B2 · Systems and methods for detecting and removing traceable identifying audio content from media content

Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting and removing traceable identifying audio content from electronic media content. One method includes: receiving, over a network, media content to be broadcast or distributed, the media content including audio data; determining whether the audio data of the media content includes traceable identifying audio content defined by an audio identifier; generating new audio data based on the audio data of the media content when an audio identifier is determined to be include in the audio data; removing audio data from the media content when the audio identifier is determined to be include in the audio data; adding the new audio data to the media content when the audio data is removed from the media content; and broadcasting or distributing the media content having the new audio data to one or more user devices.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method for detecting and removing traceable identifying audio content from electronic media content, the method comprising:

receiving, over a network at one or more servers, media content to be broadcast or distributed, the media content including first audio data;
detecting, by the one or more servers, traceable identifying audio content in the first audio data, the traceable identifying audio content defined by an audio identifier;
generating, by the one or more servers, second audio data based on the first audio data of the media content;
removing, by the one or more servers, the first audio data from the media content;
adding, by the one or more servers, the second audio data to the media content;
and
broadcasting or distributing, by the one or more servers, the media content having the second audio data to one or more user devices.

4 more elements

A system for detecting and removing traceable identifying audio content from electronic media content, the system including:

a data storage device that stores instructions for detecting and removing traceable identifying audio content from electronic media content;
and
a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method including:
receiving, over a network at one or more servers, media content to be broadcast or distributed, the media content including first audio data;
detecting, by the one or more servers, traceable identifying audio content in the first audio data, the traceable identifying audio content defined by an audio identifier;
generating, by the one or more servers, second audio data based on the first audio data of the media content;
removing, by the one or more servers, the first audio data from the media content;
adding, by the one or more servers, the second audio data to the media content;
and
broadcasting or distributing, by the one or more servers, the media content having the second audio data to one or more user devices.

7 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method for detecting and removing traceable identifying audio content from electronic media content, the method including:

receiving, over a network at one or more servers, media content to be broadcast or distributed, the media content including first audio data;
detecting, by the one or more servers, traceable identifying audio content in the first audio data, the traceable identifying audio content defined by an audio identifier;
generating, by the one or more servers, second audio data based on the first audio data of the media content;
removing, by the one or more servers, the first audio data from the media content;
adding, by the one or more servers, the second audio data to the media content;
and
broadcasting or distributing, by the one or more servers, the media content having the second audio data to one or more user devices.
