Abstract

A sound process apparatus includes a processor. The processor may execute instructions, which are stored on a memory, and when executed cause the sound process apparatus to perform operations. An obtaining operation may obtain sound data in a remote site. A first determining operation may determine volume levels of voice and noise in the remote site based on the sound data. A second determining operation may determine a volume level of noise in a local site based on the sound in the local site. A third determining operation may determine a target volume level based on the volume level of the voice in the remote site, the volume level of the noise in the remote site, and the volume level of the noise in the local site. A notifying operation may notify a user of the target volume level.
