Abstract

A device-management system performs audio processing, such as acoustic echo cancellation or beamforming, in a computing-resource allocation corresponding to a functionally limited device. The device-management system may be a locally-connected network device that is in communication with one or more user devices; the device-management system may also or instead be a remote device that communicates with the user devices using the locally-connected network device. The device-management system may receive audio data from one or more microphones of one or more user devices. To perform acoustic echo cancellation, the device-management system may receive and process time data corresponding to a time of output of audio by the user device.
