1. An augmented reality sound system, comprising:
- at least one microphone for receiving ambient sound;
a memory storing one or more augmented reality sound profiles each associated with one or more processing parameters; and
a processor coupled to the memory and configured to;
analyze the ambient sound to produce processed sound that at least emphasizes one or more particular aspects of the ambient sound; and
generate augmented ambient sound from the ambient sound by reproducing the ambient sound in conjunction with the processed sound superimposed over the ambient sound as directed by one or more of the set of processing parameters retrieved from the memory based on a selected augmented reality sound profile.

Abstract
An augmented reality sound systems is disclosed. An augmented reality sound system includes a at least one microphone for receiving ambient sound and a memory storing one or more augmented reality sound profiles and a respective set of processing parameters. The system further includes a processor coupled to the memory and configured to generate augmented ambient sound from the ambient sound by reproducing the ambient sound in conjunction with processed sound superimposed over the ambient sound as directed by one or more of the set of processing parameters retrieved from the memory based on a selected augmented reality sound profile.

14. A method for processing ambient sound to provide augmented reality sound, comprising:
-
storing, in a memory, one or more augmented reality sound profiles, each associated with one or more processing parameters; analyzing the ambient sound to produce processed sound that at least emphasizes one or more particular aspects of the ambient sound; and generating augmented ambient sound from the ambient sound by reproducing the ambient sound received by at least one microphone in conjunction with the processed sound superimposed over the ambient sound as directed by one or more of the set of processing parameters retrieved from the memory based on a selected augmented reality sound profile. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
