Methods and apparatus for use in sound replacement with automatic synchronization to images

Digital audio and video files are created corresponding to selected scenes from a creative production and are provided with a processing system that enables dialog to be selected from a scene and replaced by a user's dialog which is automatically synchronized with the original dialog so as to be in synchronism with lip movements displayed by the accompanying video display. The processing further includes a graphical user interface that presents the user with the video, the text of the dialog, and cues for rehearsal and recording of replacement dialog by the user. Replay of the user's dialog is accompanied by the video and part of the original audio except that the original dialog corresponding to the user's dialog is muted so that the user's dialog is heard as a replacement. Singing or other sounds associated with visible action may also be replaced by the same processes.

InactiveUS7365260B2Avoid wastingEdited and revised with easeGearworksMusical toysData designEvent data
Music piece sequence data are composed of a plurality of event data which include performance event data and user event data designed for linking a voice to progression of a music piece. A plurality of voice data files are stored in a memory separately from the music piece sequence data. In music piece reproduction, the individual event data of the music piece sequence data are sequentially read out, and a tone signal is generated in response to each readout of the performance event data. In the meantime, a voice reproduction instruction is output in response to each readout of the user event data. In accordance with the voice reproduction instruction, a voice data file is selected from among the voice data files stored in the memory, and a voice signal is generated on the basis of each read-out voice data.

Memory system using FET switches to select memory banks

A computer memory system provides a double data rate (DDR) memory output while requiring memory chips with only half the frequency limit of the prior art DDR memory chips. The system contains a first memory bank having data lines and a second memory bank having data lines. The first and second memory banks are associated with first and second clock signals, respectively, where the second clock signal is delayed from the first clock signal such that the data lines of the first memory bank are connected to a data bus in synchronism with the first clock signal while the data lines of the second memory bank are connected with the data bus in synchronism with the second clock signal. In one embodiment, a first FET switch connects the data lines of the first memory bank with the data bus and a second FET switch connects the data lines of the second memory bank with the data bus. The second FET switch is connected to the data bus at a time delayed from the beginning after the start of each clock cycle of the second clock signal. As a result, the data bus is never connected to the data lines of both memory banks at the same time, but rather, the data bus is alternately connected with the first memory bank and then the second memory bank.

E-learning system and method

A control engine (12) downloaded by a server (1) to a student computer (2) instantiates panel objects (16) and multiple media objects (15) linked to each panel object (16). At any one time multiple media objects (15) operate simultaneously and in synchronism to generate multiple display and sound outputs for comprehensive learning output and student interaction. The media objects (15) operate autonomously, without even knowing their places in their respective hierarchies, thus allowing dynamic updates from the server (either server-driven or student-driven). Synchronization is achieved by the panel object activating the multiple relevant media objects for a panel and the media objects using time value attributes to control activation and termination times. The media objects access (84 )a stacking mechanism (82) in real time to determine a linked panel or media object to implement an operation in response to an event such as progression to a next panel. In addition to distributing objects in real time, the stacking mechanism (82) also dynamically modifies some objects by scripting or method invocation.

The output of the sensor enables real-time display of the fingerprint images and processing of authentication data.
