Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to voice command filtering. One or more directions of background noise for a location of a voice command device are determined. The one or more directions of background noise are stored as one or more blocked directions. A voice input is received at the location of the voice command device. A direction the voice input is being received from is determined and compared to the one or more blocked directions. The voice input is ignored in response to the direction of the voice input being received from corresponding to a direction of the one or more blocked directions, unless the received voice input is in a recognized voice.
