APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ENHANCING AN AUDIO OUTPUT FROM A TARGET SOURCE
First Claim
1. A computer-program product embodied in a non-transitory computer read-able medium that is programmed for transmitting audio data to one or more outputs for audio playback, the computer-program product comprising instructions for:
- receiving at least one of a digital image of a target source from a camera and distance and angle information of the target source at a user interface;
generating one or more first coordinates based on the at least one of the digital image and the distance and angle information;
receiving audio data from the target source in response to adjusting a sensitivity of a first microphone based on the one or more first coordinates; and
transmitting the audio data to one or more outputs for audio playback.

Abstract
A computer-program product embodied in a non-transitory computer read-able medium that is programmed for transmitting audio data to at least one output for audio playback. The computer-program product comprises instructions for receiving at least one of a digital image of a target source using a camera, and distance and angle information of the target source entered at a user interface. The computer-program product comprises instructions for generating one or more first coordinates based on the at least one of the digital image and the distance and angle information. The computer-program product comprises instructions for adjusting a sensitivity of a first microphone based on the one or more first coordinates. The computer-program product comprises instructions for receiving audio data from the target source in response to adjusting the sensitivity of the first microphone and transmitting the audio data to one or more outputs for audio playback.

12. A mobile device for receiving audio data from a target source for playback at one or more outputs, the device comprising:
-
a camera; and at least one control module configured to; receive a digital image of a target source from the camera; generate one or more first coordinates based on the digital image; receive audio data from the target source in response to adjusting a sensitivity of a first microphone based on the one or more first coordinates; and transmit the audio data to one or more outputs for audio playback. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method for transmitting audio data to one or more outputs for audio playback, the method comprising:
-
receiving, via a control module, at least one of a first digital image of a target source from a camera and distance and angle information of the target source at a user interface; generating one or more first coordinates based on the at least one of the first digital image and the distance and angle information; adjusting a sensitivity of a first microphone via adaptive beamforming based on the one or more first coordinates; receiving audio data from the target source in response to adjusting the sensitivity of the first microphone; and transmitting the audio data to one or more outputs for audio playback. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
