Abstract
An individual acoustic signal specialized for a specific user who is one of a plurality of users is presented to the specific user from an acoustic signal output device for the specific user at a timing synchronized with a common acoustic signal that is presented to the plurality of users from a common sound source.
Claims9
A user device comprising processing circuitry configured to
- output an individual reproduction signal for presenting an individual acoustic signal specialized for a specific user who is one of a plurality of users to the specific user from an acoustic signal output device for the specific user at a timing synchronized with a common acoustic signal that is presented to the plurality of users from a common sound source.
A common device comprising processing circuitry configured to:
- output information for presenting a common acoustic signal to a plurality of users from a common sound source;
- and
- output information for presenting an individual acoustic signal specialized for a specific user who is one of the plurality of users to the specific user from an acoustic signal output device for the specific user at a timing synchronized with the common acoustic signal.
A method by a user device, the method comprising
- an individual reproduction step of outputting an individual reproduction signal for presenting an individual acoustic signal specialized for a specific user who is one of a plurality of users to the specific user from an acoustic signal output device for the specific user at a timing synchronized with a common acoustic signal that is presented to the plurality of users from a common sound source.
A method by a common device, the method comprising:
- a common reproduction step of outputting information for presenting a common acoustic signal to a plurality of users from a common sound source;
- and
- an output step of outputting information for presenting an individual acoustic signal specialized for a specific user who is one of the plurality of users to the specific user from an acoustic signal output device for the specific user at a timing synchronized with the common acoustic signal.
