The configuration saves space, and uses less sound to improve 3D effect.

TABLE 1 initial position information and movable section for each Sound

In specific implementation, according to the material of the selected track and the constructed region shape, the initial position information of each sound can be modified, the moving interval of each sound can be modified, and the moving range of each sound can be changed into a vertical angle.

The flow of the optimal configuration method of the sliding sound provided by the embodiment of the invention is shown in fig. 3, and the method mainly comprises the following steps:

step 1, starting a sliding track 3D audio system, and inputting some configuration information of an initialization system, wherein the information comprises orientation information of the sound devices, the serial numbers of the sound devices, the slidable range of each sound device, sound grouping and the action range of the grouping. The related information of each sound can be automatically collected according to the existing method.

The grouping rule of the sound is as follows: every 3 stereo sets are a group, the area surrounded by every 3 stereo sets is the action range of the group, the selection condition of each stereo set is that the coordinate parameter of the loudspeaker on the spherical surface is converted into the point coordinate in the plane rectangular coordinate system, the horizontal coordinate is the horizontal angle, the vertical coordinate is the vertical angle, thus the triangular area surrounded by the three loudspeakers in the plane rectangular coordinate system is the action range of the group, according to the VBAP (amplitude vector synthesis positioning) sound source generation method, when the space coordinate data of the sound source is in the triangular area, the sound source can be simulated by the three loudspeakers, thus the 3D audio effect which is personally on the scene can be obtained.

Due to different environments, some configuration information of each sound device may have some differences, but the configuration mode is basically the same. Before implementation, one skilled in the art can preset the configuration according to a specific environment. Embodiments configure information for a specific environment, performing the following substeps:

and 1.1, inputting relevant information of the sound equipment, including the azimuth information of the sound equipment, the number of the sound equipment and the slidable range of each sound equipment. The azimuth information of the sound is expressed by a horizontal angle and a vertical angle, the horizontal angle of the sound right above the top of the head of the person is 0 degree, the vertical angle is 90 degrees, the horizontal angle of the sound right in front of the person is 0 degree, and the vertical angle is 0 degree. The information about all the audios of the system is shown in table 1.

And step 1.2, inputting grouping information of the sound and the action range of each group. The system has 12 sound devices, and 3 sound devices adjacent to each other at the initial position are selected to form a group during grouping, so that the action range of the loudspeaker group can be as small as possible, the action ranges of the groups can be relatively average, and the whole adjustment can be carried out after the division is finished. This may exhibit good 3D effects. In specific implementation, those skilled in the art can perform grouping setting in advance according to actual situations. The standard sound field generated by the 3D audio system is a spherical sound field, and in order to determine the selection condition of each sound group, the invention can expand the spherical sound field into a plane rectangular coordinate system, wherein the horizontal coordinate is a horizontal angle, and the vertical coordinate is a vertical angle, as shown in FIG. 4, A (X) (X is an X-ray angle)₁，Y₁)、B(X₂,Y₂)、C(X₃,Y₃) The position information of 3 sound units respectively expressed as a sound unit has an action range of a triangular region surrounded by three points ABC, and when a sound source V (X)₀,Y₀) When in the triangular region, the sound group is effective. Whether the point V is in the triangular area or not can be judged only by meeting the following relational expression. The triangular area can be regarded as the triangular area surrounded by ABC three points, L₁、L₂、L₃Respectively, three sides of the triangle.

L₁:(Y₃-Y₂)·X₀-(X₃-X₂)·Y₀≥(Y₃-Y₂)·X₂-(X₃-X₂)·Y₂

L₂:(Y₂-Y₁)·X₀-(X₂-X₁)·Y₀≥(Y₂-Y₁)·X₁-(X₂-X₁)·Y₁

L₃:(Y₃-Y₁)·X₀-(X₃-X₁)·Y₀≤(Y₃-Y₁)·X₁-(X₃-X₁)·Y₁

And 2, inputting an audio file (audio data) with a motion trail. In 3D audio, the position of the sound production may be continuously moved like a direction, or may be randomly changed without regularity, so the invention can intercept a square point every several milliseconds, and store all the position points in a matrix for the system to sequentially extract the points and perform related calculation.

In the embodiment, the motion trail in the audio file is extracted, one square point is intercepted every 20 milliseconds, and all the square points are stored in a matrix. In general, the position parameters of the spatial sound source signal can be expressed as (α, β, δ), α is the horizontal angle of the virtual sound source in the 3D sound field, β is the vertical angle of the virtual sound source in the 3D sound field, and δ is the distance from the center of the virtual sound source in the 3D sound field, and through these three variables, an arbitrary point can be defined in the spherical region included in the 3D sound field, and in the existing 3D audio system, the distance δ parameter is rarely involved, so the present embodiment only needs the horizontal angle α and the vertical angle β of the square point.

In specific implementation, the motion trajectory can be dispersed into a plurality of orientation information points, and the processing is performed in sequence, and each processing of one orientation point needs to perform the following operations: the method comprises the steps of obtaining a selected sound box group according to square point information, obtaining the movement combination of the three sound boxes in the sound box group to achieve the optimal sound production effect, and the movement distances and gain coefficients of the three sound boxes, adjusting the playing volume of the sound boxes through the gain coefficients, sending the serial numbers and the movement distances of the sound boxes to be moved to an automatic sliding sound box playing system, and controlling a pulley to drive the sound boxes to the optimal position point through the automatic sliding sound box playing system.

However, a large amount of calculation and movement work may be required, and the invention provides a further optimization scheme, after the selected times of the sound group are counted, the fixed position of the sound with the most selected times is preferably selected, and after the positions of all the sounds are determined, only gain coefficients need to be adjusted subsequently. The specific implementation is described in the following steps.

And 3, obtaining the selected times of each sound group. And extracting the square points in the matrix in sequence, and obtaining the selected sound group according to the square points and the action range of each sound group. And then correspondingly storing the sound groups selected by each azimuth point into the matrix, so that the times of respectively selecting all the sound groups can be obtained.

The selection of sound group is determined according to the action range of sound group and the direction information of sound source, for example, the action range of sound group ABC is that the horizontal angle is alpha₁To alpha₂Interval (alpha)₁<α₂) And the vertical angle is beta₁To beta₂Interval (. beta.) of₁<β₂) When both the horizontal angle α and the vertical angle β of the azimuth information of the sound source are in this interval, α is satisfied₁<α<α₂And beta₁<β<β₂Then the sound group is selected.

And 4, determining the optimal position point of each sound. The order of determining the optimal positions of the sounds is determined by first determining the positions of the three sounds in the sound group the most times selected, then determining the positions of the three sounds in the next most sound group the most times selected, and if one or two of the sound positions in the sound group have been previously determined, then only determining the position of the other one or two sounds in the sound group. According to the method, the positions of all the sounds can be determined accordingly.

According to the VBAP principle, sound sources are easily generated by an algorithm within a triangle, and when the triangle is a regular triangle, the best effect can be exhibited, based on which, when the sound of the selected sound group is within the movable range, the regular triangle can be formed and the sound source to be sounded is within the coverage range (because the action range of the sound may change during the movement), the position points of the three sounds are the required, and if the regular triangle cannot be formed, when the sum of the differences of the three sides is the minimum, that is, the lengths of the three sides are the closest, the position points of the three sounds at this time are the obtained best position points. The embodiment is realized by setting A (alpha)₁，β₁)、B(α₂,β₂)、C(α₃，β₃) The position coordinates of three speakers in the selected speaker group are respectively selected, and V (α, β) is a position point of the virtual sound source. The calculation process mainly comprises the following steps:

and 4.1, calculating the arc lengths of AB, AC and BC. Taking the calculation of the arc length AB as an example, the calculation method of the arc length AB can be calculated according to the method for calculating the distance between two points on the spherical surface, and the calculation implementation is described as follows:

as shown in FIG. 5, the radius of the spherical surface is R, O is the center of the sphere, and there are two points A (α) on the spherical surface₁,β₁)，B(α₂,β₂) In which α is₁、α₂Is the longitude number of a point, beta₁、β₂The number of weft points is equal to the central angle theta of a major circular minor arc passing through A, B two points. An O₁And [ ] O₂Respectively, a latitude circle passing A, B, a great circle passing A, C and a great circle passing B, D are respectively longitude circles passing A, B, and the planes of the longitude circles and the latitude circles are perpendicular to each other and are used as an AE reverse vertical surface O₂BC with foot E at O₂EB and AB are connected to C.

Then

At Δ O₂In BE, from the cosine theorem, we get:

BE²＝O₂E²+O₂B²+2O₂E·O₂B cos(α₁-α₂)

＝O₁A²+O₂B²-2O₁A·O₂B cos(α₁-α₂)

＝(R cosβ₁)²+(R cosβ₂)²-2R cosβ₁·R cosβ₂·cos(α₁-α₂)

＝R²[(cos²β₁+cos²β₂-2cosβ₁·cosβ₂·cos(α₁-α₁))]

therefore AB²＝AE²+BE²＝R²[2-2sinβ₁sinβ₂-2cosβ₁cosβ₂·cos(α₁-α₂)]

And also

Comparing the two formulas, simplifying and tidying to obtain:

cosθ＝cos(α₁-α₂)cosβ₁cosβ₂+sinβ₁sinβ₂

the central angle of the major circle minor arc passing through the two points AB is theta

θ＝arc cos[(α₁-α₂)cosβ₁cosβ₂+sinβ₁sinβ₂](arc)

A. The spherical distance between B is:

L＝Rθ＝Rarc cos[(α₁-α₂)cosβ₁cosβ₂+sinβ₁sinβ₂]

by this method, the spherical distance of BC and AC can be calculated.

And 4.2, calculating the optimal sound production position point of the sound in the sound group, wherein the optimal sound production position point of the sound in the sound group represents that when the sound group is selected, the three sounds can always simulate the best 3D audio effect, and whether the three sounds can simulate the position coordinates of the square point to be produced or not needs to be judged during calculation, and the action range of the sound can possibly change along with the change in the moving process. In a 3D audio system, when three sounds are arranged to form a regular triangle, the best 3D audio effect can be shown, so that the invention needs to calculate when the regular triangle can be formed, but because the three sounds forming the regular triangle can not simulate the required sound production point every time, when the three sounds form the regular triangle but can not simulate the required sound production point, the required sound production point can be simulated, and when the difference value of three sides of the triangle is the smallest position point, the better effect can be shown.

After the arc lengths of AB, BC and AC are obtained through the step 4.1, the sizes of the AB, BC and AC are compared, whether a curved surface triangle formed by ABC is a curved surface regular triangle or not is judged, whether the ABC can simulate one or more required sounding points or not is judged according to the relational expression provided in the step 1.2 (if the sound group is selected once, the sound group only needs to simulate one sounding point, and if the sound group is selected for multiple times, the sound group needs to simulate a plurality of sounding points), and if yes, subsequent calculation and moving steps are not needed. If the required one or more sound points cannot be simulated, the sum of the three arc lengths is set to 999, and the set 999 is used for not obtaining the position information point which cannot simulate the sound source point when the difference sum is the minimum point in the following process. Then, the angle information of the three loudspeakers is changed circularly within the allowed range, for example, on the basis of 1 degree, when the horizontal angle of A is changed by 1 degree, the arc lengths of AB, BC and AC are calculated according to the formula provided by 3.1, then comparison is carried out to see whether a regular triangle can be formed, the difference sum is recorded, whether a sound source point can be simulated or not is carried out while comparison is carried out to see whether the regular triangle can be formed, and if the sound source point cannot be simulated, the difference sum is also set to 999. This function can be easily implemented using a three-layer loop, and exits until the position information with the difference sum of 0 (the difference value of 0 indicates that the three arc lengths are equal and can form a regular triangle), and if the loop is finished and the position information with the difference sum of 0 is still not found, the position point information of the three arc lengths is obtained when the difference sum of the three arc lengths is minimum.

When the sound position information in all the sound groups is determined, the step 4 is finished, and the step 5 is performed.

And 5, calculating the moving distance of each sound box according to the information of the optimal position point, and controlling the pulley to drive the sound boxes to move to the optimal position point. Namely, the arc length of the current position point and the optimal position point of all the sound equipment is calculated. Substituting the information of the optimal position point obtained in the step 4 and the current position point information of the sound equipment into the spherical distance formula provided in the step 4.1, the moving distance of each sound equipment can be conveniently obtained, the number and the moving distance data of each sound equipment are sent to the pulley control device, the pulley is controlled to drive the sound equipment to move to the optimal position point, and the position information data of all the sound equipment in the system is updated.

And 4, calculating the moving distance of the sound according to the optimal position point of each sound in each sound group obtained in the step 4 and the current position point of the sound. In the spherical environment with radius R as shown in fig. 1, the audio can only slide horizontally, the vertical angle of the audio a is not changed, and the horizontal angle of the current position point of the audio a is alpha₁The horizontal angle of the optimum position point of the sound A is alpha₂The degree of horizontal slip is α ═ α₁-α₂If the sound moves by a distance of

Because the sound movement may be counterclockwise or clockwise, the present invention may use positive and negative movement distances to indicate whether each sound is moving clockwise or counterclockwise when α is₂>α₁When the speaker moves clockwise, the movement distance is positive. Otherwise, the distance is negative.

And 6, sequentially calculating the gain coefficients of the sounds in the sound group selected by each square point according to the square point matrix in the step 2, wherein the gain coefficients of other sounds except the currently selected sound group are all 0. And sequentially storing the gain coefficients of the sound into a gain coefficient matrix. Sound gain coefficient g in sound group₁、g₂、g₃The following formula may be used for calculation. The angle information is the optimal position information of the sound, and is not the initial position information.

According to the position information A (alpha) of the selected three sound devices₁，β₁)、B(α₂,β₂)、C(α₃，β₃) The coordinates V (α, β) of the sound source are calculated as follows,

and 7, outputting the audio file to different corresponding sound channels, and starting the audio playing by the sound equipment. And simultaneously, circularly changing the gain coefficient of each sound according to the data in the gain coefficient matrix, wherein the frequency of the change of the gain coefficient is consistent with the frequency of the interception square point in the step 2.

And 8, after the audio playing is detected to be finished, moving each sound box back to the initial position point.

In specific implementation, the above processes can be automatically run by a central processing unit of the 3D audio processing system by using a computer software technology.

Through the technical scheme, the method and the device can determine the optimal position point of the sound movement, and can provide better 3D audio experience by using fewer sounds.
