At AES New York 2018, Fraunhofer IIS will present interactive TV sound powered by MPEG-H Audio: Experience how viewers can personalize a program’s audio mix and toggle various elements, such as:
- switch between different languages
- boost hard-to-understand dialogue
- adjust the volume of the commentator or listen to the stadium announcer or the fans of your favorite team respectively.
Additionally, MPEG-H Audio production tools will be presented at the Fraunhofer booth, including the Fraunhofer MPEG-H Authoring Plug-in.
The MPEG-H Audio system enables immersive sound and interactivity, and is designed to work with today’s broadcast and streaming equipment. Since May 2017, MPEG-H Audio has been the first next generation audio system to be used in a regular terrestrial 4K TV service in South Korea.
