Abstract

An image capture device includes a housing having a lens snout protruding from a front housing surface. A front microphone is mounted below the lens snout. A top microphone is mounted under a top housing surface. The top microphone is positioned to receive direct freestream air flow at a first pitched forward angle. The front microphone is positioned to receive turbulent air flow at a second pitched forward angle. The second pitched forward angle is greater than or equal to the first pitched forward angle. An audio processor receives a first audio signal and a second audio signal from the top microphone and front microphone, respectively. The audio processor generates frequency sub-bands from the first and second audio signals. The audio processor selects the frequency sub-bands with the lowest noise metric and combines them to generate an output audio signal.
