Creative Execution

?What's Lyric speaker? Lyric speaker is the next generation of speakers which displays lyrics in sync with the music. When you choose a song on your mobile phone, the lyrics show up on the translucent screen. If it is a mild song like a ballad, the fonts and movements become soft. If it is an energetic song like Rock, they become strong and powerful. Music analysis technologies developed by National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) automatically analyze the song's mood and structure, and the built-in expression engine creates motion graphics to each song that's played. Lyric speaker is the world's first speaker equipped with "Lyric Sync Technology," the technology to automatically visualize the lyrics in a beautiful way. We will offer this technology as an API for third party to change lyrical culture.
