Abstract: A portable voice capture device having an orientable arm comprising a first leg and a second leg, the first leg and the second leg having different orientations, the first leg of the first arm comprising a first differential linear array of microphones, a directivity of the first differential linear array being arranged for improved sensing of voice from a user, the second leg of the arm comprising a second differential linear array of microphones, a directivity of the second differential linear array being arranged for improved sensing of noise from a different than the direction of said sensed voice, and a noise reduction circuit for providing a voice signal with reduced noise, based on the output of the first array and on the output of the second array.

Abstract: A portable voice capture device comprising: an orientable arm with a first differential array of microphones comprising at least one pair of microphones, the directivity of said first array being arranged for sensing voice from a first direction depending on the orientation of said arm; a second differential array of microphones comprising at least one pair of microphones, the directivity of said second array being arranged for sensing noise from a second direction different from the first direction; a noise reduction circuit for providing a voice signal with reduced noise, based on the output of said first array and on the output of said second array.
