1. An analysis system comprising:
- an audio and control data communication system for receiving contents of a buffer from an always-on recording system (AORS), wherein the buffer is configured to transfer at least one microphone signal responsive to an acoustic field proximate to an ambient sound microphone (ASM) or an ear canal microphone (ECM) of the always-on recording system, wherein the analysis system is at a remote location from the ASM or the ECM, wherein a low-memory warning system of the AORS monitors an audio data memory of the AORS that stores the contents of the buffer of the AORS, wherein the low-memory warning system of the AORS causes an alert to be outputted when a remaining memory level of the audio data memory is below a predefined value; and
a server configured to receive at least a portion of the contents of the buffer and configured to analyze at least the portion of the contents of the buffer;
wherein the server processes transient sounds from the at least the portion of the contents of the buffer from the server,wherein the server generates a response or an action when an accident is detected, and;
wherein the server triggers the AORS to record when the transient sounds indicate that a user of the AORS is in a vicinity of the accident and when a predefined number of sounds other than the transient sounds are detected.

Abstract
An analysis system has an audio signal data communication system for receiving contents of a buffer where the buffer is configured to buffer at least one microphone signal responsive to an acoustic field proximate to a monitoring assembly at a remote location from the analysis system and a server having a data processing system configured to receive at least a portion of the contents of the buffer and configured to analyze at least the portion of the contents of the buffer. The data processing system includes an audio analysis system configured to analyze the at least the portion of the content of the buffer to process a sound into a response or action. Other embodiments are disclosed.

18. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing computer instructions, the execution of the instructions by one or more processors of a computer system causing the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving at least a portion of contents of a buffer or a data storage device at a server, wherein the buffer or data storage device is configured to buffer at least one ambient sound obtained from an ambient sound microphone (ASM) of an always-on recording system (AORS) responsive to an acoustic field proximate to the ASM of the always-on recording system at a remote location from the server; analyzing at least the portion of the contents of the buffer or the data storage device, wherein the AORS is triggered to record when an analysis of transient sounds from the at least the portion of the buffer indicates that a user of the AORS is in a vicinity of an accident and when a predefined number of sounds other than the transient sounds are detected; processing the analysis into a response or an action when the accident is detected; and monitoring an audio data memory of the AORS that stores at least the portion of the contents of the buffer; and causing an alert to be outputted when a remaining memory level of the audio data memory of the AORS is below a predefined value. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A method, comprising
receiving at least a portion of contents of a buffer or a data storage device at a server, wherein the buffer or data storage device is configured to buffer at least one microphone signal responsive to an acoustic field proximate to an ambient sound microphone (ASM) or an ear canal microphone (ECM) of an always-on recording system (AORS) and wherein the server is at a remote location from the monitoring assembly; -
monitoring an audio data memory of the AORS that stores at least the portion of the contents of the buffer; causing an alert to be outputted when a remaining memory level of the audio data memory of the AORS is below a predefined value; analyzing at least the portion of the contents of the buffer or the data storage device, wherein transient sounds from the contents of the buffer are analyzed and processed at a remote location; and identifying an accident and generating a response or an action, wherein AORS is triggered to record when an analysis of the transient sounds indicates that a user of the AORS is in a vicinity of the accident and when a predefined number of sounds other than the transient sounds are detected.
