Abstract:
A method and system for processing an obstacle effect in a virtual acoustic space are disclosed. The method includes receiving a parameter for an obstacle candidate plane extracted from spatial information, determining, in response to the parameter, whether the obstacle candidate plane is an obstacle related to a path between a position of a virtual sound source and a position of a user, and applying a sound effect according to the obstacle to an audio signal when the obstacle candidate plane is the obstacle. The obstacle candidate plane is a plane of an object that may become the obstacle in a sound propagation path between the virtual sound source and the user.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for processing a multichannel audio signal. A multichannel audio signal processing method may include: generating an N-channel audio signal of N channels by down-mixing an M-channel audio signal of M channels; and generating a stereo audio signal by performing binaural rendering of the N-channel audio signal.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an audio signal processing method including identifying a sound source provided inside a preset reference distance and a sound source provided outside the reference distance to represent a sound field based on virtual reality (VR) content that is represented in a predetermined virtual space in which a user is located in a VR environment, processing a sound field using three-dimensional (3D) ambisonics based on height information and horizontal information of the sound source provided inside the reference distance, and processing a sound field using two-dimensional (2D) ambisonics based on horizontal information of the sound source provided outside the reference distance.
Abstract:
A broadcast transmitting apparatus and method, and a broadcast playback apparatus and method for providing an object-based audio by encoding and decoding a multichannel audio signal are provided. The broadcast transmitting apparatus may generate audio identification information used to determine whether the multichannel audio signal is an object-based audio signal. When the multichannel audio signal is determined to be the object-based audio signal, based on the audio identification information, the broadcast playback apparatus may control and output the multichannel audio signal for each channel.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a binaural rendering method and apparatus for decoding a multichannel audio signal. The binaural rendering method may include: extracting an early reflection component and a late reverberation component from a binaural filter; generating a stereo audio signal by performing binaural rendering of a multichannel audio signal base on the early reflection component; and applying the late reverberation component to the generated stereo audio signal.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for correcting colors of an image projection device are provided. The method includes: acquiring a photographed image by photographing a sample image projected on projection surface; generating input-output color information for n regions, based on color values of a block in the sample image and corresponding color values of the block in the photographed image; selecting one of the n regions of photographed images as a reference region; generating look-up tables (LUTs) for non-reference regions, based on the reference region and the input and output color information; and correcting colors of input images to be projected by the image projection device using the look-up tables, thereby minimizing color difference of the input images on the projection surface for both intra and inter projection device color correction while simplifying the correction procedure.
