The present disclosure provides a microphone, comprising a shell structure, a vibration pickup assembly, a vibration pickup assembly, wherein the vibration pickup assembly is accommodated in the shell structure and generates vibration in response to an external sound signal transmitted to the shell structure, and at least two acoustoelectric conversion elements configured to respectively receive the vibration of the vibration pickup assembly to generate an electrical signal, wherein the at least two acoustoelectric conversion elements have different frequency responses to the vibration of the vibration pickup assembly.

Disclosed examples generally include methods and apparatuses related to microphone units, such as may be found in implantable medical devices (e.g., cochlear implants). Microphone units generally include a microphone element connected to a chamber having a concave floor with the chamber covered by a membrane. Microphone units can be configured to produce an output based on pressure waves (e.g., sound waves) that reach the membrane. In an example, a microphone unit has a pressurized gas within the chamber below the membrane such that, while in a static state, the membrane deflects away from the chamber floor.

An electronic device according to various embodiments disclosed herein may include: a housing, a camera module comprising a camera disposed in the housing, a speaker module comprising a speaker positioned in a first direction with respect to the camera module, a receiver module comprising a receiver positioned in a second direction opposite to the first direction with respect to the camera module, first sound holes including a connection hole positioned in the first direction with respect to the camera module and a hole positioned in the second direction with respect to the camera module, the first sound holes being positioned on a side surface of the electronic device, a first sound conduit interconnecting the connection hole and the speaker module, a second sound hole positioned on a front surface of the electronic device, a second sound conduit including a connection conduit disposed in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction with respect to the first sound conduit, the second sound conduit interconnecting the second sound hole and the receiver module, and a connection portion interconnecting the first sound conduit and the connection conduit of the second sound conduit.

Embodiments of the present disclosure a computer-implemented method comprising receiving sensor data from one or more vibration sensors that are embedded within a seat, where the sensor data includes data associated with speech by an occupant of the seat, and at least one of processing, transmitting, or storing the sensor data based on the data associated with the speech.

Examples of an aiding device for singers are described. The aiding device comprises a body that has a periphery edge, a top wall and a smooth inner wall. The top wall curves away from the periphery edge thus forming a cup-like cavity which is shaped to define a first chamber and a second chamber that are interconnected together. The first chamber is shaped and sized to fit over an earlobe of a singer while the second chamber has a distal end that is designed and configured to be positioned in proximity to a user's mouth. When in use the first chamber encloses one of user's ears and the distal end of the second chamber is positioned in proximity to user's mouth with the periphery edge pressed against user's face such that a sound produced by the user is captured and travels into the second and first chamber and is reflected back from the smooth inner wall producing echo within the cavity. Thus, the unfiltered sound coming out from the singer's mouth is provided to one of the singer's ear in real time and hear the original sound or key in the other ear so that the singer can match his/her pitch to the original sound.
