Reception apparatus, transmission apparatus, and information processing method

A transmission apparatus, comprising:

• an analysis processing section configured to:
• execute an analysis process on content data that includes an acoustic signal;
• and
• generate reproduction enabled/disabled information that indicates one of an enablement of a reproduction of a haptic sensation signal or a disablement of the reproduction of the haptic sensation signal;
• an encoding section configured to generate encoding data that includes a plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data and the reproduction enabled/disabled information that corresponds to each of the plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data;
• and
• a transmission processing section configured to transmit each of the encoded data, the reproduction enabled/disabled information, and the acoustic signal.

An information processing method, comprising:

• in a reception apparatus:
• receiving data including each of an acoustic signal and reproduction enabled/disabled information, wherein
• the received data includes encoded data,
• the encoded data is encoded based on an encoding scheme that is associated with acoustic data,
• a structure of the encoded data includes a payload region and a reserved region,
• the payload region is configured to store a plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data, and
• the reserved region is configured to store the reproduction enabled/disabled information;
• and
• generating a haptic sensation signal based on each of the acoustic signal and the reproduction enabled/disabled information that indicates a reproduction of the haptic sensation signal is enabled, wherein the haptic sensation signal is not generated based on the reproduction enabled/disabled information that indicates the reproduction of the haptic sensation signal is disabled.

An information processing method, comprising:

• in a transmission apparatus:
• executing an analysis process on content data that includes an acoustic signal;
• generating reproduction enabled/disabled information indicating an enablement of a reproduction of a haptic sensation signal or a disablement of the reproduction of the haptic sensation signal;
• generating encoding data that includes a plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data and the reproduction enabled/disabled information corresponding to each of the plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data;
• and
• transmitting each of the encoded data, the reproduction enabled/disabled information corresponding to each of the plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data, and the acoustic signal.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to execute operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving data including each of an acoustic signal and reproduction enabled/disabled information, wherein
• the received data includes encoded data,
• the encoded data is encoded based on an encoding scheme that is associated with acoustic data,
• a structure of the encoded data includes a payload region and a reserved region,
• the payload region is configured to store a plurality of pieces of acoustic frame data, and
• the reserved region is configured to store the reproduction enabled/disabled information;
• and
• generating a haptic sensation signal based on each of the acoustic signal and the reproduction enabled/disabled information that indicates a reproduction of the haptic sensation signal is enabled, wherein the haptic sensation signal is not generated based on the reproduction enabled/disabled information that indicates the reproduction of the haptic sensation signal is disabled.
