Abstract

An electronic device that dynamically adapts sound based at least in part on spatial information determined from ambient or background sound is described. Based at least in part on sound measurements corresponding to ambient noise in an environment, which may include a second electronic device, the electronic device may determine a characteristic of the environment. For example, the characteristic may include: a size of the environment, an acoustic mode of the environment and/or a reverberation time of the environment, which is associated with at least a frequency. Then, based at least in part on the determined characteristics, the electronic device may calculate an acoustic radiation pattern. Next, the electronic device may provide audio content and second information specifying the acoustic radiation pattern for the second electronic device.
