1. A voice controlled device comprising:
- a plurality of microphones configured to receive voice inputs from one or more users for operation of the voice controlled device;
a communication interface configured to receive sensor data from an external device, the sensor data describing an environment of the voice controlled device; and
a controller configured to operate a first subset of the plurality of microphones independent of the voice inputs and in response to first sensor data and a second subset of the plurality of microphones independent of the voice inputs and in response to second sensor data.
