Abstract

An audio system that includes an IMU or accelerometer in physical proximity to a microphone and a driver. The signal generated by the IMU or accelerometer may be used to filter the audio signal generated by the microphone with respect to mechanically coupling between the driver outputting sound and the microphone via a shared structure. In some cases, an accelerometer may be incorporated into a package of the microphone to provide analog-based filtering prior to converting the audio signal of the microphone to a digital format.
