Abstract
A system for distinguishing between a human voice generated command and an electronic speaker generated command is provided. An exemplary system comprises a microphone array for receiving an audio signal collection, preprocessing circuitry configured for converting the audio signal collection into processed recorded audio signals, energy balance metric determination circuitry configured for calculating a final energy balance metric based on the processed recorded audio signals, and energy balance metric evaluation circuitry for outputting a command originator signal based at least in part on the final energy balance metric.
