摘要:
A plurality of speakers are linked in the present invention. The linked position of each speaker can be detected. Audio signal is input to any one of the master speakers. The master speaker synchronizes the other linked speakers, and supplies audio signals to other speakers. It also controls the delay quantity of the speaker unit of each speaker. For a single speaker, the apparent width of this array speaker system becomes twice the width, and the speaker unit spacing becomes one third the spacing. Consequently, the frequency band at which direction is controllable becomes enhanced. Additionally, a plurality of microphone devices are linked at the top, bottom, left and right sides in the present invention. The linked position of each microphone device can be detected. Audio data is output from each microphone device to the master microphone device. The master microphone device synchronizes with other linked microphone devices, treats them as array microphones in the entire linked array microphone system, and controls the delay quantity of the microphone unit of the microphone device. For a single microphone device, the apparent width of this array microphone system becomes twice the width, and the microphone unit spacing becomes one-third the spacing. Consequently, the frequency band at which direction is controllable becomes enhanced.

In each sound unit, when connection with another sound unit is detected, an input control signal is supplied to a control section and then supplied to the adjoining sound unit. Input clock signal is supplied to a PLL section, and an output clock signal from the PLL section is supplied to the adjoining sound unit. Input speaker output signal and microphone input signal are supplied to a speaker output signal processing section and microphone input signal processing section, respectively. The speaker output signal processing section performs predetermined signal processing on an input signal to output the resultant processed signal to a speaker array, and then performs internal delay compensation processing on the signal to output the resultant processed signal to the adjoining sound unit. The microphone input signal processing section calculates a sum of the input signal and sums of delayed signals of outputs from the microphone array and then performs internal delay compensation processing on the signal to output the resultant processed signal to the adjoining sound unit.

The invention provides an audio apparatus which hardly causes a directivity to be lowered even in a case where a plurality of unidirectional microphones, each having a directivity toward a center of a housing of the apparatus, are embedded in a recessed part provided on an upper surface of the housing. Microphones 10A to 10P are disposed in the vicinity of a wall surface of a recessed part 13. Each of the microphones 10A to 10P is disposed so that its sound-collecting direction (a direction having a high directivity) corresponds to a center direction as viewed from an upper side of a housing 1. A direction (a rear side) opposite to the direction having the directivity of each of the plurality of directional microphones is open acoustically. Namely, a front side of each microphone directs toward an upper surface of the recessed part 13, and its back side directs toward a direction higher than the wall surface of the tub-shaped recessed part as viewed from a lateral side of the housing.

A communication conference system that enables users who have only a connecting unit via a telephone line network and users who have only an IP connecting unit to hold a talk session mutually without a need of an expensive dedicated conference server is provided. A talk session device 1 includes a network processing portion for transmitting/receiving voice information to/from other equipments via IP, and a terminal for inputting/outputting a voice signal. The talk session device 1 is connected to a handset terminal of a telephone 3 via an adaptor 2 that converts the standards (mainly a level) of the voice signal. The talk session device 1 is connected to other talk session devices via IP, and is connected to other telephones by a telephone line via the telephone 3. Accordingly, a user serving as a destination of the IP and a user serving as a destination of the telephone line are connected mutually.

A control unit 7 gives acoustic environment instruction data to a picked up sound directionality control unit 5 and an adaptive filter 11. According to this, the picked up sound directionality control unit 5 generates a picked up sound signal constituted by a predetermined picked up sound directionality. The adaptive filter 11 detects the picked up sound directionality from the acoustic environment instruction data, and reads out the filter parameter corresponding to this picked up sound directionality, from a memory 13. The adaptive filter 11 sets a delay coefficient and a filter coefficient of an FIR filter, and generates a pseudo echo signal by an impulse response with respect to the received sound signal. Based on an error signal obtained by subtracting the pseudo echo signal from the picked up sound signal by an adder 12, the adaptive filter 11 sets a more optimum filter parameter, and generates the next pseudo echo signal.

A position detecting system is provided, which is capable of effectively preventing erroneous detection of audio to be measured. The position detecting system includes a terminal device that inputs an audio signal from an audio device and a microphone. The audio device sequentially inputs measurement audio signals that have been formed by two or more audio signals of different frequencies to a speaker and receives a notification signal, wherein the report signal indicates that the audio of the measurement audio signal has been collected from the terminal device. The audio device clocks a time t1 and a time t2, namely clocks after the audio of the measurement audio signal is output from the speakers SP 1 --- SP2 until the notification signals of the measurement audio signals are received by the signal receiving unit. The audio device calculates the position of the microphone by using the times t1 and t2. For each frequency component of the measurement audio signal, when an audio signal exceeding a predetermined level is inputted from the microphone, the terminal device detects it as a component of the measurement audio signal and transmits a notification signal upon detection of the measurement audio signal.
