Abstract: A method is provided for adapting an anchor position for relative locations of one or more virtual loudspeakers. The method includes: detecting a cornering motion of a user, and adapting the anchor position based on the detected cornering motion such that the anchor position remains centered in front of the user through the cornering motion.

Abstract: An audio device with a body configured to be worn on or abutting an outer ear of a user, wherein the body is configured to contact at least one of the outer ear and the portion of the head that abuts the outer ear, at two separate spaced contact locations, and wherein the body is compliant at a body portion that defines one of the contact locations. The device also has an acoustic module carried by the body and configured to locate a sound-emitting opening anteriorly of and proximate the user's ear canal opening when the body is worn on or abutting the ear of the user.

Abstract: A wind noise reduction system includes a delay and sum (DAS) beamformer, an MVDR beamformer, a wind detector, a GEV beamformer, and a fixed voice mixer. The DAS beamformer generates a first voice signal based on a first and second microphone signal. The MVDR beamformer generates a second voice signal based on the first and second microphone signals. The GEV beamformer generates a wind array voice signal based on the first and second microphone signals and an accelerometer signal. The wind detector generates a wind detection signal based on the first voice signal and the second voice signal. The fixed voice mixer generates an output voice signal based on a microphone array voice signal, the wind array voice signal, and the wind detector signal. If high winds are detected, the output voice signal includes elements of the wind array voice signal based in part on the accelerometer signal.

Abstract: A wearable two-way communication audio device includes a first microphone that provides a first microphone signal, a second microphone that provides a second microphone signal, and a third microphone that provides a third microphone signal. The device also includes one or more processors that are configured to process the first microphone signal and the second microphone signal to form a first beamformed signal. The one or more processors compare energy in the first beamformed signal to energy in the first microphone signal, and, if energy in the first beamformed signal exceeds energy in the first microphone signal, then the one or more processors mix the first microphone signal and the third microphone signal to provide a mixed signal. The one or more processors may also generate a voice output signal for transmission to a far end recipient using the mixed signal.

Abstract: A wearable two-way communication audio device includes a first microphone that provides a first microphone signal, a second microphone that provides a second microphone signal, and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to use the second microphone signal to estimate an ambient noise level and adjust an equalization filter based on the estimated ambient noise level. The first microphone signal and the second microphone signal may be processed via a first beamformer to provide a first beamformed signal and the first beamformed signal may be filtered with the equalization filter to provide a noise estimate signal. The one or more processors may also use the noise estimate signal to generate a voice output signal for transmission to a far end recipient.
