When we play a movie or series at home, it is quite common for the sound we hear to reach high peaks in action scenes and to have a particularly low volume when there are dialogue scenes. And of course, depending on the title, this forces us to keep the TV remote control close to us. By continuously turning the volume up or downdepending on the touch.

From Xataka Smart Home we have given you details on how to solve this problem with the methods you already have at home, such as the equalizer on your TV or special modes that boost the sound of dialogues on your Smart TV or streaming platform. If you have a sound bar or external audio device, you also have more extensive options.

An AI to help identify and amplify dialogue sound

But there is one resource that many manufacturers are starting to use that will probably come as no surprise to you: artificial intelligence. Algorithms and techniques machine learning It can be applied in many sectors and is currently the heart of all the software and chips in our televisions. DTS aims to use AI for the public good: Increase the volume of dialogues so they can be heard clearly.

The company recently announced its ‘DTS Clear Dialogue’ technology, an “AI-powered solution.” improve clarity of dialogues “On TV.” According to DTS, its algorithm identifies and enhances dialogue in the content we play, eliminating the need to manually raise and lower the volume all the time.

This system also allows us to adjust personalized sound parameters, since there are situations where we will not perceive the sound in the same way as another person.

This is how the technology works a ‘toolbox’ This needs to be implemented in devices, so manufacturers need to collaborate to integrate the system into TVs and other devices. DTS has not yet announced which companies will join the group to implement this technology in TVs, but it is likely that LG, Sony, Philips or Hisense, among others, will implement it after becoming permanent partners.

DTS technology can be tested at IFA in Berlin, an annual trade fair in the German capital that presents new developments in consumer electronics and home appliances. There are no details on an arrival date yet, so stay tuned for more information.
