Abstract:
An audio and video synchronizing perceptual model is described that is based on how a person perceives audio and/or video (e.g., how the brain processes sound and/or visual content). The relative emotional impact associated with different audio portions may be employed to determine transition points to facilitate automatic synchronization of audio data to video data to create a production that achieves a particular overall emotional effect on the listener/viewer. Various processing techniques of the perceptual model may utilize perceptual characteristics within the audio portions to determine a transition point for automatic synchronization with video data.

Claim (Index 18):
A system comprising:\n one or more modules implemented in hardware, the one or more modules configured to:\n analyze audio data to detect perceptual characteristics indicative of an emotional impact on a listener, including loudness of different portions of the audio data; \n determine one or more transition points in the audio data at which to synchronize changes in video data for a production with the audio data, in part, by assigning scores to the different portions based on a change in the loudness over a particular time period proximate the different portions; and \n automatically configure the production to synchronize the changes in the video data to the one or more transition points that are determined to cause the detected perceptual characteristics indicative of the emotional impact on the listener in the audio data to automatically synchronize with the changes in the video data.
