Abstract

Systems and methods enable audio source localization by receiving, by a processor of speaker unit in a group of networked speaker units, an audio signal associated with an audio source representing audio produced by the audio source and captured by beamforming microphones associated with the speaker unit. The processor determines an angle of arrival of the audio to the speaker unit from the audio source based at least in part on a beamforming technique associated with the beamforming microphones. The processor determines a distance of the audio source from the speaker unit based at least in part on a time of arrival of the audio at the speaker unit, and the processor determines a location of the audio source within a coordinate system associated with the group of networked speaker units.
