Abstract
A method for analyzing data from a microphone, the microphone being arranged to continuously record audio data, the method comprising: continuously storing the recorded audio data in a buffer, receiving a first triggering signal at a first point in time, the first triggering signal pertaining to a request for analyzing the audio data presently being recorded by the microphone, transferring a predefined amount of recorded audio data stored prior to the first point in time and audio data stored after the first point in time to a conversation analyzing unit. The method is advantageous as the information that was momentarily available during a conversation in the form of sound waves is now analyzed and thus may be converted to a format compatible with information available from other sources of relevance to the user.
