Abstract: The disclosed electronic shutter may include (1) an optical structure including a medium through which light from an environment passes to a lens of a camera for capturing an image of the environment; and (2) a controlling circuit that (a) detects a first condition of a signal, where the first condition indicates an activation of the camera, (b) controls, in response, to the first condition, the optical structure such that the medium attains a transparent optical state, (c) detects a second condition of the signal, where the second condition indicates a deactivation of the camera, and (d) controls, in response to the second condition, the optical structure such that the medium attains a non-transparent optical state in a manner that prevents visual detection of the lens from the environment. Various other methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: An audio system that includes an IMU or accelerometer in physical proximity to a microphone and a driver. The signal generated by the IMU or accelerometer may be used to filter the audio signal generated by the microphone with respect to mechanically coupling between the driver outputting sound and the microphone via a shared structure. In some cases, an accelerometer may be incorporated into a package of the microphone to provide analog-based filtering prior to converting the audio signal of the microphone to a digital format.
