Abstract: Techniques associated with a combination speaker and light source (“speaker-light device”) responsive to states of an organism based on sensor data are described, including generating motion sensor data in response to a movement captured using a motion sensor, deriving movement data using a motion analysis module configured to determine the movement to be associated with one or more of a gesture, an identity, and an activity, using the motion sensor data, generating acoustic sensor data in response to sound captured using an acoustic sensor, deriving audio data using a noise removal module configured to subtract a noise signal from the acoustic sensor data, detecting a radio frequency signal using a communication facility, the radio frequency being associated with a personal device, obtaining state data from the personal device, and determining a desired light characteristic using the state data and one or both of the movement data and the audio data.

Abstract: Techniques associated with a combination speaker and light source powered using a light socket are described, including a housing comprising a plate coupled to a substantially hemispherical enclosure, a platform configured to couple a light source to a terminal configured to receive a light control signal, the light control signal configured to modify a light characteristic, a speaker coupled to the housing and configured to project audio in a direction, a light socket connector coupled to the housing and configured to provide power to the speaker and the light source when the light socket connector is coupled with a light socket, an acoustic sensor disposed on a surface of the housing, and a light sensor located within the housing, the light sensor facing away from the light source.
