Abstract: Apparatus is configured to associate each of one or more spatially-distributed audio sources in a virtual space, each audio source providing one or more audio signals representing audio for playback through a user device, with a respective fade-in profile which defines how audio volume for the audio source is gradually increased from a minimum level to a target volume level as a function of time. It is configured also to identify, based on user position, a current field-of-view within a virtual space and, in response to detecting that one or more new audio sources have a predetermined relationship with respect to the current field-of-view, fading-in the audio from the or each new audio source according to the fade-in profile for the respective audio source so as to increase their volume gradually towards the target volume level defined by the fade-in profile.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method for seamlessly replacing areas in a digital image with corresponding data from temporally close digital images depicting substantially the same scene. The method uses localized image registration error minimization over a fixed preliminary boundary. A least cost closed path which constitutes a boundary for the area to be replaced is calculated using dynamic programming. The replacement area is blended such that image data information from one image is seamlessly replaced with image data information from another image.
