    Abstract: Touch control surfaces for electronic user devices are disclosed herein. An example electronic device includes a microphone array, a touch event identifier to analyze signal data generated by microphones of the microphone array to detect a first touch on a surface of the electronic device, a gesture detector to correlate the first touch with a gesture, a user input mapper to map the gesture to a user input and a processor to cause the electronic device to respond to the user input.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for reliably masking speech commands directed to one or more computing devices to prevent the speech commands from being rendered. In some embodiments, each of the one or more computing devices includes components configured to generate acoustic data from ambient sound waves, process the acoustic data to identify a speech command sequence, and mask the speech command sequence from being rendered. At least some of the systems and methods disclosed herein monitor inbound audio at a fine grain level of detail. Working at this level of granularity enables the system and methods described herein to detect potential speech commands early within the user's utterance thereof and to discriminate quickly between true speech commands and other user utterances. These early detection and discrimination features, in turn, enable some embodiments to manage potential communication disruptions (e.g., jitter and/or latency) by modifying rates of audio prior to rendering.

    Abstract: Touch control surfaces for electronic user devices are disclosed herein. An example electronic device includes a microphone array and processor circuitry to detect a first acoustic event based on signals output by the microphone array, the first acoustic event indicative of a first touch on a surface of the device at a first time; detect a second acoustic event based on the signals, the second acoustic event indicative of a second touch on the surface at a second time; determine a first location of the first touch and a second location of the second touch; identify the first time and the second time as occurring within a threshold period of time; identify a gesture based on the first location, the second location, and the occurrence of the first touch and the second touch within the threshold; and cause an output at the device in response to the gesture.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions, and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to track movement of a head of a user wearing earphones, the earphones to move with the movement of the head of the user, the earphones to be communicatively coupled to a computing device. The processor circuitry is to obtain media content, the media content including first audio data for a first channel and second audio data for a second channel. The processor circuitry is to adjust, based on the movement of the head of the user, the first audio data for the first channel and the second audio data for the second channel. The processor circuitry is to cause the adjusted first audio data and the adjusted second audio data to be played by the earphones.

    Abstract: In an example, a mobile computing device is provided with mechanical driver s for enhancing audio output, including low-frequency audio. The mechanical drivers may be provided to supplement traditional speakers. In an embodiment, mechanical drivers are boosted in effectiveness by being disposed against a sturdy surface such as a desktop. When a user holds a convertible tablet up, such enhancement may be provided by enabling mechanical drivers that are disposed against a base or other structural member of the convertible tablet.
