Patent attributes
A system for audio processing of an acoustic signal captured by at least one microphone based on analysis of a video signal associated with the acoustic signal is provided. The video signal may be dynamically processed and analyzed in real time by the system to locate one or more sound sources and to determine distances between the sound sources and the at least one microphone. This information may be used to perform selective noise suppression, noise cancellation, or selective adjustment of acoustic signal components or energy levels acoustic signal components such that noise or unrelated acoustic signal components associated with sound sources not associated with located sound sources are suppressed or filtered. The video signal analysis may track sound source movement for dynamic steering of an acoustic beam towards the sound source.
