The present invention relates to an active sound device utilizing audio recognition, the device comprising a data input unit for inputting audio data from an external terminal, an output unit for outputting the inputted audio data, an audio detection unit for detecting an audio signal generated from outside, a determination unit for determining the audio signal detected by the audio detection unit, and a control unit for, on the basis of information determined by the determination unit, controlling the output of the audio data inputted from the data input unit.

Provided is an information processing apparatus including a sensor, an actuator, a vibration control circuit, a transmission circuit, and a reception circuit. The sensor detects vibration of a control target. The actuator provides vibration control of the control target. The vibration control circuit generates a drive signal for the vibration control for the actuator according to an output signal of the sensor, and outputs the generated drive signal to the actuator. The transmission circuit modulates transmission data to produce a transmission signal, and synthesizes the modulated transmission signal to produce the drive signal for the vibration control that is to be outputted to the actuator. The reception circuit extracts a reception signal from the output signal of the sensor, and demodulates the extracted reception signal to produce reception data.

A bone conduction speaker includes a housing, a vibration board and a transducer. The transducer is located in the housing, and the vibration board is configured to contact with skin and pass vibration. At least one sound guiding hole is set on at least one portion of the housing to guide sound wave inside the housing to the outside of the housing. The guided sound wave interfaces with the leaked sound wave, and the interfacing reduces a sound pressure level of at least a portion of the leaked sound wave. A frequency of the at least a portion of the leaked sound wave is lower than 4000 Hz.

There is provided an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that can suppress hindrance to viewing/listening to content. A control unit controls output of a tactile stimulus in a case where notification information is received during output of content including sound. Further, the control unit performs a process of controlling the tactile stimulus in response to the content or a process of controlling the content in response to the tactile stimulus. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a mobile device such as a smartphone and the like capable of reproducing content including sound.

An electronic apparatus includes an inner microphone provided on a first surface of the electronic apparatus; an outer microphone disposed on a second surface opposite the first surface; and a processor configured to: receive a voice signal of a counterpart and a voice signal of a wearer of the electronic apparatus that are input through the inner microphone and the outer microphone, based on a size of the voice signal of the wearer input through the inner microphone being greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, remove the voice signal of the wearer input through the outer microphone based on the voice signal of the wearer input through the inner microphone, and amplify the voice signal of the counterpart input through the outer microphone and from which the voice signal of the wearer is removed and output the amplified voice signal, wherein the size of the voice signal of the wearer input through the inner microphone is greater than a size of the voice signal of the wearer input through the outer microphone.

An electronic device includes one or more pose sensors for detecting a pose of a user of the electronic device relative to a first physical environment and is in communication with one or more audio output devices. While a first pose of the user meets first presentation criteria, the electronic device provides audio content at a first simulated spatial location relative to the user. The electronic device detects a change in the pose of the user from the first pose to a second pose. In response to detecting the change in the pose of the user, and in accordance with a determination that the second pose of the user does not meet the first presentation criteria, the electronic device provides audio content at a second simulated spatial location relative to the user that is different from the first simulated spatial location.
