CROWDSOURCED DATABASE FOR SOUND IDENTIFICATION
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processor, configure the processor to determine a set of sound parameters associated with a sound type, by performing the steps of:
- receiving, via a network, a different audio recording of a first sound type from each remote computing device included in a first plurality of remote computing devices;
processing the audio recordings via a processor to determine a first set of sound parameters associated with the first sound type; and
transmitting the first set of sound parameters associated with the first sound type to at least one remote computing device.

Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for determining a set of sound parameters associated with a sound type. The technique includes receiving, via a network and from each a first plurality of remote computing devices, an audio recording of a first sound type and a descriptor associated with the first sound type. The technique further includes processing the audio recordings via a processor to determine a first set of sound parameters associated with the first sound type. The technique further includes receiving a request associated with the descriptor from at least one remote computing device and, in response, transmitting the first set of sound parameters associated with the first sound type to the at least one remote computing device.
