Abstract
A camera input can be used by the computer to support audio spatialization or to improve audio spatialization of an application that already supports it. A computer system may to support audio spatialization, for example, by modifying the relative latency or relative amplitude of the rendered audio packets. If a sound is intended, for example, to be located on the left side of the user, then the audio channel that is rendered on the headset speaker located on the user's left ear may have a somewhat decreased latency and increased amplitude compared to the other audio channel.
Claims27
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor to adjust sound of a user's head provided by a processor based system to earphones to produce three-dimensional sound effects which depend on an orientation of the user's head relative to the system, where said processor to produce sound from said processor based system, based on the distance of the user from the system and the orientation of the user's head relative to the system;
- and
- a storage coupled to said processor.
A method comprising:
- adjusting sound of a user's head provided by a processor based system to earphones to produce three-dimensional sound effects which depend on an orientation of the user's head relative to the system;
- and
- producing sound from said processor based system, based on the distance of the user from the system and the orientation of the user's head relative to the system.
One or more non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions to perform a sequence comprising:
- adjusting sound of a user's head provided by a processor based system to earphones to produce three-dimensional sound effects which depend on an orientation of the user's head relative to the system;
- and
- producing sound from said processor based system, based on the distance of the user from the system and the orientation of the user's head relative to the system.
An apparatus comprising:
- means for adjusting sound of a user's head provided by a processor based system to earphones to produce three-dimensional sound effects which depend on an orientation of the user's head relative to the system;
- and
- means for producing sound from said processor based system, based on the distance of the user from the system and the orientation of the user's head relative to the system.
