See full text

An apparatus for enabling an audio envelope based on angular information is described herein. The apparatus includes one or more microphones to receive audio signals and a beamformer to determine arrival time coefficients. The apparatus also includes a distance detector to determine a distance of a speech source from the one or more microphones based on the arrival time coefficients, and an angular locator to determine the angular information of the speech sources. Moreover, the apparatus includes a processor to create an audio envelope based on the distance and angular location of the speech source.
