Abstract:
Various embodiments set forth techniques for directional sound modification. In one aspect, a system includes a plurality of audio sensors configured to acquire sound from an environment and at least one processor coupled to the plurality of audio sensors. The at least one processor is configured to determine a direction within the environment, generate an audio signal based on sound acquired from the direction within the environment, and transmit the audio signal to at least one audio output device to generate audio output. The audio output combines with sound from the direction within the environment to produce a modified sound.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 12 , further comprising:\n obtaining second location data indicating a second location associated with the plurality of audio sensors; determining a second direction within the environment based on the second location associated with the plurality of audio sensors and a location that corresponds to the first sound type; generating a second audio signal based on sound acquired from the second direction within the environment; and transmitting the second audio signal to the at least one audio output device to generate second audio output, wherein the second audio output combines with the sound from the second direction within the environment to produce a second modified sound.
