METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DYNAMIC REDUCTION OF CAMERA BODY ACOUSTIC SHADOWING IN WIND NOISE PROCESSING
An image capture device includes a processor for wind noise processing. The processor receives signals from a first microphone, a first plurality of microphones, and a second plurality of microphones. The processor may segment the signals into low frequency bins and high frequency bins. The processor may select a minimum level signal bin for the low frequency bins. For the high frequency bins, the processor may select a minimum level signal bin for a first group of microphones or a second group of microphones. The processor may generate a composite signal by combining the selected minimum level signal bins for the low frequency bins and the selected minimum level signal bins for the high frequency bins.
SYNCHRONIZED MODE TRANSITION
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, devices, and apparatuses for synchronized mode transitions are presented. A first device configured to be worn at an ear includes a processor configured to, in a first contextual mode, produce an audio signal based on audio data. The processor is also configured to, in the first contextual mode, exchange a time indication of a first time with a second device. The processor is further configured to, at the first time, transition from the first contextual mode to a second contextual mode based on the time indication.
MICROPHONE DEVICE AND SYSTEM COMPRISING THE MICROPHONE DEVICE
There is described a switchable microphone device which may be switched between a digital output mode and an analog output mode. There is further described a system for use of such a device, which allows for the switching between analog and digital computing modes.
Dynamic wind noise compression tuning
An image capture device with dynamic wind noise compression tuning techniques is described. A technique includes detecting of the presence of wind noise by measuring coherence between at least two microphones. For a compressor, adjusting a default compression threshold and default compression parameters based on the coherence measurements. For each microphone, applying by the compressor the adjusted compression parameters when an audio signal is above the adjusted compression threshold and applying the default compression parameters when the audio signal is below the adjusted compression threshold.
DECIMATOR FOR AUDIO SIGNALS
Examples of the disclosure relate to an apparatus that provides a decimator for audio signals. The apparatus comprises means for: receiving one or more audio input signals and applying a multi-stage decimation process to the one or more audio input signals wherein the multi-stage decimation process comprises at least a first branch and a second branch. The apparatus also comprises means for applying audio signal analysis to the one or more audio input signals. The audio signal analysis extracts at least one audio signal parameter from the one or more audio input signals and is performed on the output of the first branch of the multi-stage decimation process. Use of the second branch of the multi-stage decimation process is dependent upon the outcome of the audio signal analysis.

ACOUSTIC ELEMENT
A hearing device may include a housing, a microphone, and an acoustic element. The housing may include a shell and a microphone port disposed between an outer surface of the shell and an inner surface of the shell that defines a cavity within the shell. The microphone may be disposed within the cavity of the shell and acoustically connected to the microphone port. The acoustic element may be disposed on the outer surface of the shell or at least partially within the microphone port. The acoustic element may include a substrate and fibers extending from the substrate. At least a portion of acoustic energy incident upon the acoustic element may be received by the microphone.
