Abstract

Techniques for auditory augmented reality using selective noise cancellation include receiving an input signal capturing an ambient auditory environment; separating the input signal into a set of audio signals that includes first and second component signals; and in response to generating the set of audio signals: generating a context-sensitive user interface that displays a plurality of first controls for modifying the first component signal and a plurality of second controls for modifying the second component signal, the plurality of first controls being independent from the plurality of second controls; receiving, from a user, a selection to remove the first component signal; and in response to receiving the selection: removing the first component signal from the set of audio signals to generate a modified set of audio signals that includes the second component signal; and driving an audio output device to generate sound based on the modified set of audio signals.
