    摘要: A method, an apparatus and a computer program are provided. The method includes rendering visual augmented reality content for display on a display of a hand-held electronic device, based on a location of the hand-held electronic device; estimate a location of a user of the hand-held electronic device, different from the location of the hand-held electronic device; and rendering aural augmented reality content for output to the user of the hand-held electronic device, based on the location of the user.

    摘要: According to an example embodiment, a technique for spatial audio processing on basis of two or more input audio signals that represent an audio scene and at least one further input audio signal that represents at least part of the audio scene is provided, the technique including identifying a portion of interest (POI) in the audio scene; processing the two or more input audio signals into a spatial audio signal where the POI in the audio scene is suppressed; generating, on basis of the at least one further input audio signal, a complementary audio signal that represents the POI in the audio scene; and combining the complementary audio signal with the spatial audio signal to create a reconstructed spatial audio signal.

    摘要: Apparatus including a processor configured to: receive an audio signal from a close microphone, wherein the audio signal is input in a spatial audio mixing, and the close microphone is associated with a first sound source; receive a beam-formed audio signal from a microphone array, wherein the beam-formed audio signal is a result of forming a beam of the microphone array directed from the microphone array towards the close microphone so as to enhance the audio signal; determine a time duration where no further sound source is active within the sound scene the first sound source; and determine a time difference, during the time duration, between the audio signal and the beam-formed audio signal to enable alignment of the audio signal and the beam-formed audio signal.

    摘要: An approach is provided for providing location information of user devices based on signal frequencies of transmitters. The positioning platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of one or more signals, from one or more transmitters, captured at one or more user devices to determine one or more frequencies of the one or more signals. Next, the positioning platform determines device location information of the one or more user devices based, at least in part, on the one or more frequencies.
