Abstract

An image capture device reduces noise floor using multiple microphones. The image capture device includes a processor that obtains a front microphone signal from a front microphone, the front microphone signal having a noisy noise floor portion, obtains a rear microphone signal from a rear microphone, sets a splice point based on mitigation of the noisy noise floor portion relative to a speech frequency range, and combines a substantially clean noise floor portion of the rear microphone signal at or below the splice point with a remaining portion of the front microphone signal above the splice point to generate a microphone signal.
