1. A wearable sensing system for determining speech based on minute facial skin surface movements, the wearable sensing system comprising:
a housing configured to be worn on a head of a user and to be supported by an ear of the user;
at least one coherent light source associated with the housing and configured to direct light towards a facial region of the head;
at least one sensor associated with the housing and configured to receive light source reflections from the facial region and to output associated reflection signals;
at least one processor configured to:
receive the reflection signals from the at least one sensor in a time interval;
analyze the reflection signals to identify minute facial movements in the time interval;
decipher the minute facial movements to determine associated speech; and
generate output of the associated speech.
