Publication number: 20240121342Abstract: Example embodiments relate to conference calls. In a method, there may be provided audio data and associated classification data from a plurality of user devices as part of a conference call, the plurality of user devices including at least a first user device and a second user device. The classification data may be indicative of one of a plurality of predetermined sound types represented by the associated audio data in a current time frame. The method may comprise determining that the audio data provided by the first user device is associated with a dominant speaker. The method may comprise controlling transmission of the audio data as part of the conference call, including preventing transmission of audio data provided by at least the second user device based on its associated classification data being indicative of a restricted sound type and the first user device being associated with a dominant speaker.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Mikko Tapio TAMMI, Riitta Elina VÄÄNÄNEN, Toni MÄKINEN, Roope Olavi JÄRVINEN

Patent number: 8954854Abstract: Systems and techniques for location based sound management. Information associated with a display is defined or selected based on user inputs and sounds associated with responsive locations of the display. Defining of the information associated with the display may be based at least in part on user touches to a touch screen display. Parameters for playback are also selected, such as a number of audio channels, based on user inputs that may similarly comprise user touches to the touch screen display. Playback parameters may be changed during playback based on user inputs occurring during playback.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2012Date of Patent: February 10, 2015Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Kari Juhani Järvinen, Antti Eronen, Juha Henrik Arrasvuori, Roope Olavi Järvinen, Miikka Vilermo

Publication number: 20140337742Abstract: An audio processing apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprising an audio analysis unit configured to obtain a group of audio signals, each audio signal associated with an image of a group of images, the group of images being provided for a presentation having an assigned overall viewing time with each image having an assigned viewing time, and to analyze at least one of the audio signals to determine one or more intermediate audio signals for determination of an audio track having a first duration, which first duration essentially covers said assigned overall viewing time. The apparatus further comprises an audio track determination unit configured to compose the audio track having said first duration on basis of said one or more intermediate audio signals.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2011Publication date: November 13, 2014Inventors: Roope Olavi Järvinen, Kari Juhani Järvinen, Juha Henrik Arrasvuori, Miikka Vilermo
