摘要: A system configured to perform echo cancellation using a reduced number of reference signals. The system may perform multi-channel acoustic echo cancellation (MCAEC) processing on a first portion of a microphone audio signal that corresponds to early reflections and may perform single-channel acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) processing on a second portion of the microphone audio signal that corresponds to late reverberations. For example, the system may use MCAEC processing on a plurality of reference audio signals to generate a first echo estimate signal and may subtract the first echo estimate signal from the microphone audio signal to generate a residual audio signal. The system may delay the first echo estimate signal, perform the AEC processing to generate a second echo estimate signal, and subtract the second echo estimate signal from the residual audio signal to generate an output audio signal. This reduces an overall complexity associated with performing echo cancellation.

摘要: A system configured to create a flexible home theater group using a variety of different devices. To enable the home theater group to generate synchronized audio, the system performs device localization to generate map data, which represents locations of devices in a device map. The map data may include a listening position and/or television, such that the map data is centered on the listening position with the television along a vertical axis. To generate the map data, the system selects a primary device that determines calibration data indicating a sequence when each of the individual devices generates playback audio. The primary device sends the calibration data to secondary devices and each device generates playback audio at a designated time in the sequence, enabling other devices to capture the output audio and determine a relative position of the playback device (for example using angle of arrival and distance information).

摘要: A device has a microphone array that acquires sound data and a camera that acquires image data. A portion of the device may be moveable by one or more actuators. Responsive to the user, the portion of the device is moved toward an estimated direction of the user. The estimated direction is based on sensor data including the sound data and the image data. First variance values for individual sound direction values are calculated. Data derived from the image data or data from other sensors may be used to modify the first variance values and determine second data comprising second variances. The second data may be processed to determine the estimated direction of the user. For example, the second data may be processed by both a forward and a backward Kalman filter, and the output combined to determine an estimated direction toward the user.

摘要: A system configured to perform cascade echo cancellation processing to improve a performance when reference signals are asymmetric (e.g., dominant reference signal(s) overshadow weak reference signal(s)). The system may perform cascade echo cancellation processing to separately adapt filter coefficients between the dominant reference signal(s) and the weak reference signal(s). For example, the system may use a dominant reference signal to process a microphone audio signal and generate a residual audio signal, using the residual audio signal to adapt first filter coefficient values corresponding to the dominant reference signal. Separately, the system may use a weak reference signal to process the residual audio signal and generate an output audio signal, using the output audio signal to adapt second filter coefficient values corresponding to the weak reference signal.

摘要: An enhancement equalizer (EEQ) can be configured to compensate for hearing loss. An app or application can assist a user with measuring hearing loss at various frequencies (e.g., threshold sensitivity versus normal hearing). Using these measurements, the system may compute a set of filters for an EEQ that can boost different frequencies by different amounts corresponding to the user's sensitivity to that frequency. The measurement and resulting EEQ may be earphone specific (e.g., both the measurement and the filter computation may depend on the particular type/model of earphone used). In some implementations, the system may allow the user to select correction strength that controls an amount of correction applied (e.g., 25%, 50%, or 75% of full correction). In some implementations, the system may adjust the EEQ and/or correction strength according to the volume of playback (e.g., by applying less correction at higher playback volumes to avoid triggering earphone limiters).
