Abstract
A method and system for detecting speech using close sensor applications, according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, a close microphone is applied to detect sounds with higher muscle or bone transmission components. In some embodiments, a close camera is applied that collects visual information and motion that is correlated with the potential phonemes for such positions and motion. In some embodiments, myography is performed, to detect muscle movement. In an earbud form factor embodiment, processing of different channels of close information is performed to improve the accuracy of the recognition.
