Abstract
Methods and apparatus for determining biological effects of environmental sounds are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a sound characteristic analyzer to identify a sound event based on audio data in an environment. The example apparatus includes a physiological data analyzer to identify a physiological event based on physiological response data collected from a user exposed to the sound event in the environment. The example apparatus includes a correlation identifier to identify a correlation between the sound event and the physiological event and a report generator to generate a report based on the correlation.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a sound characteristic analyzer to identify a sound event based on audio data collected in an environment;
- a physiological data analyzer to identify a physiological event based on physiological response data collected from a user exposed to the sound event in the environment;
- a correlation identifier to identify a correlation between the sound event and the physiological event;
- and
- a report generator to generate a report based on the correlation.
A method comprising:
- identifying, by executing an instruction with a processor, a sound in an audio stream collected in an environment;
- identifying, by executing an instruction with the processor, a physiological event based on physiological response data collected from a user exposed to the sound in the environment;
- determining, by executing an instruction with the processor, a correlation between the sound and the physiological event;
- and
- generating, by executing an instruction with the processor, a report based on the correlation.
At least one computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to at least:
- detect a sound event in audio data collected in an environment;
- detect a physiological event in physiological response data collected from a user exposed to the sound event in the environment;
- identify a correlation between the sound event and the physiological event;
- and
- generate an instruction based on the correlation.
