Abstract:
Audio-derived information is provided to a vehicle control system of a vehicle by attaching a microphone externally to a vehicle to generate an analog signal in response to sound waves external to the vehicle. An enclosure containing sound-attenuating material mechanically filters low frequency sounds from reaching the microphone transducer. An analog-to-digital converter converts the analog signal to a digital signal. A vehicle data bus transfers the digital signal to the vehicle control system.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 14 , further comprising the step of combining the digital signals of the plurality of microphones to produce a combined signal, and presenting the combined signal to a single node of the vehicle data bus.
