Gain control for an electro-acoustic device with a facial movement detector

摘要

Methods, systems and devices are provided for controlling a wearable device. Embodiments include receiving a facial movement indication from a facial movement detector measured contemporaneously with an input audio signal. Additionally, whether a first movement pattern associated with the wearer speaking is a movement match to the facial movement indication may be determined. In this way, a speaking gain profile may be applied to the input audio signal for generating an augmented audio segment in response to determining the first movement pattern is the movement match to the facial movement indication. Thus, the augmented audio segment may be output.

1. A method of controlling an output of a wearable device worn by a wearer, comprising:
receiving a facial movement indication from a facial movement detector measured contemporaneously with an input audio signal; determining whether the facial movement indication matches a first movement pattern associated with the wearer speaking; applying a speaking gain profile to the input audio signal for generating an augmented audio segment in response to determining that the facial movement indication matches the first movement pattern associated with the wearer speaking; and outputting the augmented audio segment.
