Abstract
Disclosed are a sound source focus method and device in which the sound source focus device, in a 5G communication environment by amplifying and outputting a sound source signal of a user's object of interest extracted from an acoustic signal included in video content by executing a loaded artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm and/or machine learning algorithm. The sound source focus method includes playing video content including a video signal including at least one moving object and the acoustic signal in which sound sources output by the object are mixed, determining the user's object of interest from the video signal, acquiring unique sound source information about the user's object of interest, extracting an actual sound source for the user's object of interest corresponding to the unique sound source information from the acoustic signal, and outputting the actual sound source extracted for the user's object of interest.
