1. A voice detection apparatus, comprising:
- a speech intention determining processor configured to;
calculate a distance between a mouth of a user and a hand of the user holding a microphone based on motion information sensed by motion capture sensors placed on a head of the user and a wrist of the user,calculate a direction of the microphone based on a rotation angle sensed by the motion capture sensor placed on the wrist, andpredict a speech intention regarding a speech of the user based on the distance and the direction; and
a controller configured to control operation of detecting a voice section from a received sound signal based on the predicted speech intention.

Abstract
Disclosed are an apparatus and method of deducing a user'"'"'s intention using motion information. The user'"'"'s intention deduction apparatus includes a speech intention determining unit configured to predict a speech intention regarding a user'"'"'s speech using motion information sensed by at least one motion capture sensor, and a controller configured to control operation of detecting a voice section from a received sound signal based on the predicted speech intention.
