Abstract
In general, techniques are described that enable voice activation for computing devices. A computing device configured to support an audible interface that comprises a memory and one or more processors may be configured to perform the techniques. The memory may store a first audio signal representative of an environment external to a user associated with the computing device and a second audio signal sensed by a microphone coupled to a housing of the computing device. The one or more processors may verify, based on the first audio signal and the second audio signal, that the user activated the audible interface of the computing device, and obtain, based on the verification, additional audio signals representative of one or more audible commands.
