  • Patent number: 10353198
    Abstract: A sound information display device including: a plurality of sound collecting units; an information obtaining unit that obtains positional information and sound information of a sound source based on collected sound information of the plurality of sound collecting units; a display data generation unit that generates display data for displaying sound information that is obtained by the information obtaining unit overlaid on a visual image at a position that corresponds to positional information that is obtained by the information obtaining unit within the visual image; and a head-mounted image display unit that displays sound information of a sound source overlaid on the visual information at a position that corresponds to the sound source within the visual image based on display data that is generated by the display data generation unit.

  • Patent number: 9607622
    Abstract: An audio-signal processing device includes a decoding unit that decodes a compressed audio stream to obtain audio signals for a predetermined number of channels; a signal processing unit that generates 2-channel audio signals including left-channel audio signals and right-channel audio signals, on the basis of the predetermined-number-of-channels audio signals; and a coefficient setting unit that sets filter coefficients corresponding to the impulse responses for the digital filters, on the basis of format information of the compressed audio stream. The signal processing unit uses digital filters to convolve impulse responses for paths from sound-source positions of the channels to the left and right ears of a listener with the corresponding predetermined-number-of-channels audio signals and adds corresponding results of the convolutions for the channels to generate the left-channel audio signals and the right-channel audio signals.
