  • Patent number: 11302207
    Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for validating honesty of a student taking an online test. A camera is used to detect and monitor the test taker's eye movements and eye gaze positions during the taking of the test to ensure the test taker is looking only at the computer display showing the questions and answer choices to the test taker. A microphone is incorporated into, placed on, or in the vicinity of the computer display and the system compares audio received to recorded voice of the test taker to detect another voice. Other voices and eye movement beyond the display screen may be flagged as indicative of dishonest test taking.

  • Patent number: 9693170
    Abstract: A process and system for generating three dimensional sound conferencing includes generating a virtual map with a plurality of positions, each participant selecting one of the positions, determining a direction from each position to each other position on the map, determining a distance from each position to each other position on the map, receiving sound from each participant, mixing the received sound, transforming the mixed sound into binaural audio, and directing the binaural audio sound to each participant via a speaker associated with the virtual position of the speaking participant. The result is a clarified sound that gives to the listening participant a sense of where the speaking participant is positioned relative to the listening participant.

  • Patent number: 9565316
    Abstract: A process and system for generating three dimensional audio for television broadcast includes generating a virtual map of participants with a plurality of positions, each participant selecting one of the positions, determining a direction from each position to each other position on the map and to predetermined listener position, receiving sound from each participant, converting the received sound according to the direction of the speaking participant to the listener, mixing the converted sounds, transforming the mixed sound into binaural audio, and directing the binaural audio sound for transmission to a television viewer. The result is a clarified sound that gives to the television viewer a sense of where the speaking participant is positioned relative to the listening television viewer.
