Interactive personalization of media asset characters' names and voices
The patent US12046259B2 outlines a method and system for personalizing character names in media assets through voice synthesis technology. The process begins with receiving a preferred name for a character and identifying instances in the media where the character's name is mentioned. A selection of name replacement options is then displayed, including the preferred name. If the media is part of a group watch, the system synthesizes the preferred name using a voice synthesizer that considers the context of the original utterance. Approval from group members is sought before replacing the character's name with the synthesized version at the identified locations.
Additionally, the method allows for the generation of metadata tags for each instance of the character's name, enabling precise audio replacement based on timestamps. The system can also adapt the preferred name for other media assets in a series or different contexts, ensuring consistency across multiple instances. The synthesized name can match the voice characteristics of the second character or even the viewer, enhancing the immersive experience. The approval process can vary, requiring a majority consensus from group members or viewers in a live setting. Overall, this innovation aims to enhance viewer engagement by allowing personalized interactions with media content.
