Abstract
A wearable device for binaural audio is described. The wearable device includes a feedback mechanism, a microphone, an always on binaural recorder (AOBR), and a processor. The AOBR is to capture ambient noise via the microphone and interpret the ambient noise. An alert is issued by the processor to the feedback mechanism based on a notification detected via the microphone in the ambient noise.
Claims22
A method for an always on binaural recording, comprising:
- monitoring a background noise;
- filtering the background noise;
- interpreting the background noise by comparing the background noise to a catalogue of classified sounds stored locally to detect a notification;
- and
- issuing an alert from a feedback mechanism based on the notification detected in the background noise, wherein the alert is a replay of the notification that preserves a directional information of the notification.

A system for binaural audio, comprising:
- a display;
- a speaker;
- a microphone;
- a memory that is to store an ambient noise or visual effect, and that is communicatively coupled to the display and the speaker;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the radio and the memory, wherein when the processor is to execute the instructions, the processor is to:
- capture the ambient noise;
- interpret the ambient noise by comparing the background noise to a catalogue of classified sounds stored locally to detect a notification;
- and
- issue an alert via the speaker based on the notification detected in the ambient noise.
