    摘要: An imaging apparatus includes: an image sensor that captures a subject image to generate image data; an audio processor that generates audio data associated with the image data; and a receiver that receives a first audio signal and a second audio signal from an external sound collection apparatus. The first audio signal indicates a result of first amplification conversion performed on input sound in the sound collection apparatus. The second audio signal indicates a result of second amplification conversion performed on the input sound in the sound collection apparatus, the second amplification conversion being different from the first amplification conversion. The audio processor performs processing to combine the first and second audio signals, which received from the receiver as input, with each other, to generate the audio data of a sound collection result indicating the input sound in a predetermined data format.

    摘要: A loudspeaker including: a diaphragm having a first radiating surface and a second radiating surface, wherein the first radiating surface and the second radiating surface are located on opposite faces of the diaphragm; a drive unit configured to move the diaphragm based on an electrical signal; a loudspeaker support structure, wherein the diaphragm is suspended from the loudspeaker support structure via one or more loudspeaker suspension elements. The loudspeaker support structure comprises a self-supporting porous shell which encloses a volume configured to receive sound produced by the second radiating surface, wherein at least part of the self-supporting porous shell is provided by at least one self-supporting portion of porous material having a specific airflow resistance in the range 500-10000 Pa·s/m so as to allow sound produced by the second radiating surface to exit the volume enclosed by the shell.

    摘要: In some implementations, a system for validating products that are placed in a shopping cart includes a shopping cart configured to retain products and to be operated by a user in a retail environment. The shopping cart includes product validation hardware and a controller. The product validation hardware includes motion sensors positioned along a top perimeter of the shopping cart and at least one sound sensor positioned inside the shopping cart. The shopping cart is configured to receive, from the motion sensors, motion data when a product enters a top horizontal plane of the shopping cart, and to receive, from the sound sensor, audio data that is collected in real-time as the product is placed in the shopping cart. An audio signature is generated for the product, and is used to validate the product that is placed in the shopping cart.
