AUDIO ASSOCIATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

1 . An audio capture method ( 100 ) for a large interactive device (LID), comprising:

relating ( 110 ) captured ambient audio provided by a first user with media presented to the first user via an LID; and

indicating ( 120 ) related media displayed on the LID based upon an audio input provided by the first user.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing ( 210 ) the captured ambient audio and the related LID media content.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

processing ( 310 ) the captured ambient audio; and

identifying ( 320 ) the first user as a specific source of the captured ambient audio.

4 . The method of claim further comprising:

relating ( 410 ) captured ambient audio provided by a second us with media presented to the second user via the LID; and

indicating ( 420 ) related media presented to the second user via the LID based upon an audio input provided by the first user.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein indicating related media comprises altering one or more visible media parameters.

6 . The method of claim 4 , wherein indicating related media comprises altering one or snore visible media parameters.

7 . The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the media presented to the first user via an LID changes with time; and

wherein the related captured ambient audio provided by first user is temporally linked to the media.

8 . An audio capture system ( 500 ) for a large interactive device (LID), comprising:

a LID ( 510 ) to provide media content ( 520 ) to a first user ( 530 );

an audio capture device ( 540 ) to capture ambient audio ( 550 ) generated by the first user;

logic ( 560 ), which when executed by a processor ( 570 ) coupled to the LID, relates the captured ambient audio provided by the first user with the media content provided to the first user;

a memory ( 580 ) coupled to the LID to process and store at least a portion of the captured ambient audio and related LID media content; and

logic ( 590 ), which when executed by the processor coupled to the LID, indicates related media ( 595 ) displayed on the LID based upon an audio input provided by the first user,

9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the LID ( 510 ) comprises a plurality o touch sensitive display devices.

10 . The system of claim 8 , wherein:

the logic indicating related media displayed on the LID based upon an audio input provided by the first user indicates both media content provided by the first user and media content provided by a different user.

11 . The system of claim 8 , further comprising speech recognition logic, which when executed by the processor ( 570 ), associates at least a portion of the captured ambient audio with the first user.

12 . The system of claim 8 , further comprising a temporal indexing system to temporally relate the ambient audio provided by the first user with a time dependent, changing media content.

13 . An audio capture method ( 600 ) for a large interactive device (LID), comprising:

relating ( 610 ) captured ambient audio provided by a plurality of users with media presented to the plurality of users via an LID;

storing ( 620 ) the captured ambient audio and the related LID media content; and

indicating ( 630 ) related media displayed on the LID based upon an audio input provided by any one of the plurality of users.

14 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising:

processing ( 710 ) the captured ambient audio provided by the plurality of users using speech recognition logic; and

identifying ( 720 ) specific user selected from the plurality of users as a source of the captured ambient audio,

15 . The method of claim 13 ,

wherein the media presented to the plurality of users via an LID changes with time; and

wherein the related captured ambient audio provided by the plurality of users is temporally linked to the media.
