Patent ID: 8339458

Claim:
A method for allowing selective audio modification of items in a video containing embedded data comprising: configuring an audio capture system to record audio produced by one or more sound-producing elements in a capture area; configuring a video capture system to record video produced in the capture area including the one or more sound-producing elements; attaching a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag to the one or more sound-producing elements, wherein the RFID tags are loaded with audio characteristics information and device information pertaining to the respective sound-producing element; recording by the video and audio capture systems video and audio produced by the one or more sound-producing elements in the capture area; scanning the RFID tag to collect sensor information comprising audio characteristics information and the device information loaded in the RFID tag and to automatically determine a physical location of the corresponding sound producing element relative to a position in the area; mapping the collected sensor information and location information with the recorded audio to produce configurable audio; and embedding the configurable audio within the video, wherein an end-user is able to selectively modify one or more audio characteristics of a specific one of the one or more sound-producing elements in the embedded video without producing a corresponding change in the audio characteristics of one other of the one or more sound-producing elements in the embedded video.
