Abstract:
An apparatus and method for real-time audio processing employs a gaze detection sensor to detect a direction of a user's gaze and output a gaze signal corresponding to the detected direction of the user's gaze. A digital signal processing unit responds to a plurality of signals corresponding to a plurality of sounds received at the apparatus, and the determined direction of gaze to identify a signal of interest from the plurality of signals using the gaze signal. The signal of interest is processed for output to the user. In embodiments, a microphone array provides the plurality of signals. An imaging sensor may work with either the microphone array or the gaze detection sensor to identify the signal of interest.

Claim (Index 17):
A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause a machine to perform operations comprising:\n receive, from a sensor, a gaze signal corresponding to a detected direction of a gaze of a user; read the gaze signal to determine the detected direction of the gaze of the user; responsive to determining the detected direction of the gaze of the user, identify, in an electronic data storage, one or more available actions that correspond to the detected direction of the gaze of the user; select a first action from the one or more available actions; and execute a set of computer-readable instructions that correspond to the first action.
