Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for use of microphones with VSensors for wearable devices. VSensors may be used to detect and / or capture vibrations in bones. The captured bone vibrations may then be used to improve audio related operations. For example, bone vibrations may correspond to user audio input (e.g., speech), and as such the captured bone vibrations may be used in enhancing noise reduction functions in the wearable devices, by enabling distinguishing user audio input, as captured by microphone(s), from ambient noise. This may obviate the need to move the wearable device closer to the user's mouth (such that embedded microphones would be closer). The captured bone vibrations may also be analyzed to determine if they correspond to user control input (e.g., by means of finger tapping), such as by comparing them against predefined patterns.

Description

[0001] priority statement [0002] This patent application references, and claims priority and benefits from, US Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61 / 926,475, filed January 13, 2014, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] Various aspects of this disclosure relate to audio processing.
