Abstract
Methods and systems for beam forming an audio signal based on a location of an object relative to the listening device, the location being determined from positional data deduced from an optical image including the object. In an embodiment, an object's position is tracked based on video images of the object and the audio signal received from a microphone array located at a fixed position is filtered based on the tracked object position. Beam forming techniques may be applied to emphasize portions of an audio signal associated with sources near the object.
