Music Fingerprinting System is Fastest Yet
Kurt Kleiner writes on NewScientistTech:
A digital music identification system that can search through 17 million songs in under 1 second has been launched in the US.More here.
MusicIP, based in California, US, announced last week that it had received a US patent for its method of automatically identifying, or "fingerprinting", digital music files.
The company already offers software that analyses the music collection on a computer, identifies it, and makes recommendations. But now it will now offer its music identification feature for other companies to include in their products.
The system can recognise a song from its audio "fingerprint" in a fraction of a second. This allows users to rapidly organise their music collection, discover more about a particular track or get new recommendations, through connected databases, regardless of the format of the audio file.
