METHOD FOR REMOTE CAPTURE OF AUDIO AND DEVICE
Some embodiments herein include at least one of systems, methods, and devices for remote audio capture using a hand-held device. In some embodiments, the device captures, stores, and transmits audio to another device via wireless technologies. In some embodiments, the device may be used either as a hand-held microphone or as a lavaliere microphone.
1 . A method performed by a first device, comprising:
wirelessly receiving a stream of audio data from at least one other device;
capturing a stream of video data;
calculating a latency between the stream of audio data from the at least one other device and the stream of video data;
offsetting the stream of audio data to compensate for the latency between the stream of audio and the stream of video;
combining the offset stream of audio data from the at least one other device and the stream of video data into a file.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first device is a smart-phone and the method is performed by an app executing on the smart-phone.
3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the first device is an iPhone®.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first device includes a video camera and the method is performed by software executing on the device.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first device receives the stream of audio data from the at least one other device via a Bluetooth® connection.
6 . A computer-implemented method comprising:
capturing audio data by a microphone in a second device that includes a processor, a first memory coupled to the processor, instructions stored on the first memory, operable to cause the processor to execute a wireless protocol, a wireless chip coupled to the processor, the wireless chip operable to send and receive wireless signals;
wirelessly transmitting the captured audio data to a first device;
capturing video data by a camera in the first device;
determining a latency between the stream of audio data from the second device and the video;
aligning the audio data to the video data to compensate for the latency between the audio data and the video data; and
storing the aligned audio and video data into a file.
