Abstract
An electronic device that performs automatic room filling is described. Based at least in part on information about an environment, which may include a second electronic device, the electronic device may determine a number of individuals in the environment. Then, based at least in part on the determined number of individuals, the electronic device may calculate an acoustic radiation pattern. For example, a width of a beam in the acoustic radiation pattern may be narrower when there is one individual in the environment, and the width of the beam may be wider when there is more than one individual in the environment. Next, the electronic device may provide audio content and second information specifying the acoustic radiation pattern for the second electronic device.
