Rockin’ Patent – Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC’s “Dynamic Music Creation In Gaming”

WO 2020/102005 A1 - Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC - Dynamic Music Creation In Gaming - Patents Rock - Russell IP
  • Rockin’ Patent®: WO 2020/102005 A1
  • Filed: 7 November 2019
  • In the name of: Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC 
  • Title: Dynamic Music Creation In Gaming
  • What’s claimed: “A method for dynamic music creation comprising; a) assigning an emotion to one or more musical motifs; b) associating a game vector with the emotion; c) mapping the one or more musical motifs to the game vector based on the emotion; d) generating a musical composition based on the game vector and desired emotions.”
  • Why this patent rocks: This patent appears to relate to an AI-powered system that adapts background music to game scenarios and a player’s activity. TechRadar notes how machine learning could be used to analyse how different musical components like rhythm or melody map to different emotions, and “then create different emotional variants to musical scores that will trigger specific feelings in gamers as they play.” For example, if a player stops moving for a while, calmer ambient music with reduced tempo could play. For a more detailed take on the patent, see here.
