Assignee: CHROMATIC INC.
Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC H

Claim 18:
19. A method for enhancing incoming audio signals, the method comprising:
using a controller to perform:
receiving an incoming audio signal;
generating a controller output signal based on the received incoming audio signal; and

selectively transmitting the controller output signal to a neural network engine (NNE) or digital signal processing (DSP) circuitry based on specified criteria and/or a characteristic of the incoming audio signal,
wherein the NNE is coupled to the controller and configured to receive the controller output signal when transmitted from the controller, and further configured to generate an NNE output signal based on the controller output signal, and
wherein the DSP circuitry is coupled to the controller and the NNE, and configured to receive the controller output signal from the controller or the NNE output signal from the NNE, the DSP circuitry being further configured to generate a processed signal based on the controller output signal and/or the NNE output signal.
