AUTOMATIC SPEECH RECOGNITION TRIGGERING SYSTEM

Abstract:

A device implementing an automatic speech recognition triggering system includes at least one processor configured to receive first and second audio signals respectively corresponding to first and second microphones of a device. The at least one processor is further configured to generate, based on at least one of the first or second audio signals, a third audio signal corresponding to a voice beam directed to an expected position of a mouth of a user. The at least one processor is further configured to determine whether wind noise is present in at least one of the first, second, or third audio signals. The at least one processor is further configured to, based on determining whether wind noise is present, an audio signal from among the second or third audio signals, for a determination of whether at least one of the first or second audio signals corresponds to the user.
