Abstract:

The concept of singing karaoke exclusively relies on audio based techniques. The invention consists of developing the concept of video immersion: the user will see his (her) image inserted into the video clip or movie at the place of his (her) favorite dancer, singer or player, and will therefore be able to play clip/song on video tape, and replace any famous star. More precisely, the invention relates to a karaoke system in which are provided successive means for picking up an image of the user and his/her voice, analyzing and processing the obtained signals, mixing the audio/video signals thus analyzed and processed and a pre-recorded material and displaying the combination signals thus obtained.
