Abstract: A system for implementation of region of interest-based streaming is disclosed. The system includes an image acquisition unit to capture a stream of images. The system also includes a connection interface including a video class extension module to provide coordinates corresponding to the region of interest of the stream of images. The connection interface includes a descriptor module to receive capabilities associated with the stream of images. The capabilities include an initial frame size, a predefined data format and a region of interest. The descriptor module streams the predefined data format by representing the predefined data format as a compressed data format thereby streaming the initial frame size dynamically in a single video stream format and a video frame configuration. The system includes a streaming application layer to analyze the initial frame size and the compressed data format based on the coordinates.

Abstract: Method of performing acoustic zooming starts with microphones capturing acoustic signals associated with video content. Beamformers generate beamformer signals using the acoustic signals. Beamformer signals correspond respectively to tiles of video content. Each of the beamformers is respectively directed to a center of each of the tiles. Target enhanced signal is generated using beamformer signals. Target enhanced signal is associated with a zoom area of video content. Target enhanced signal is generated by identifying the tiles respectively having at least portions that are included in the zoom area, selecting beamformer signals corresponding to identified tiles, and combining selected beamformer signals to generate target enhanced signal. Combining selected beamformer signals may include determining proportions for each of the identified tiles in relation to the zoom area and combining selected beamformer signals based on the proportions to generate the target enhanced signal.
