  • Patent number: 11851049
    Abstract: Techniques for utilizing microphone or audio data to detect and responding to low velocity impacts to a system such as an autonomous vehicle. In some cases, the system may be equipped with a plurality of microphones that may be used to detect impacts that fail to register on the data captured by the vehicle's inertial measurement units and may go undetected by the vehicle's perception system and sensors. In one specific example, the perception system of the autonomous vehicle may identify a period of time in which a potential low velocity impact may occur. The autonomous vehicle may then utilize the microphone or audio data associated with the period of time to determine if an impact occurred.

  • Patent number: 11516613
    Abstract: Techniques for determining information associated with sounds detected in an environment based on audio data are discussed herein. Audio sensors of a vehicle may determine audio data associated with sounds from the environment. Sounds may be caused by objects in the environment such as emergency vehicles, construction zones, non-emergency vehicles, humans, audio speakers, nature, etc. A model may determine a classification of the audio data and/or a probability value representing a likelihood that sound in the audio data is associated with the classification. A direction of arrival may be determined based on receiving classification values from multiple audio sensors of the vehicle, and other actions can be performed or the vehicle can be controlled based on the direction of arrival.

  • Patent number: 11322019
    Abstract: Techniques for determining a direction of arrival of an emergency are discussed. A plurality of audio sensors of a vehicle can receive audio data associated with the vehicle. An audio sensor pair can be selected from the plurality of audio sensors to generate audio data representing sound in an environment of the vehicle. An angular spectrum associated with the audio sensor pair can be determined based on the audio data. A feature associated with the audio data can be determined based on the angular spectrum and/or the audio data itself. A direction of arrival (DoA) value associated with the sound may be determined based on the feature using a machine learned model. An emergency sound (e.g., a siren) can be detected in the audio data and a direction associated with the emergency relative to the vehicle can be determined based on the feature and the DoA value.

  • Patent number: 11257396
    Abstract: Geospatial data can be converted into audio outputs. For example, a system can receive a dataset indicating geospatial locations of objects within a region. Based on the dataset, the system can generate a virtual map representing the region and including virtual points representing the objects. The virtual points can be spatially positioned at locations in the virtual map corresponding to the geospatial locations of the objects in the region. The system can receive a user input via a user input device for interacting with a particular virtual point among the virtual points in the virtual map. The system can determine one or more sound characteristics for a sound based on receiving the user input. The system can then transmit an audio signal to an audio device for causing the audio device to generate the sound having the one or more sound characteristics, which may assist with exploring the virtual map.

  • Publication number: 20210322086
    Abstract: Methods and devices for issuing ablation therapy using a cardiac signal as a trigger for therapy delivery. The cardiac signal itself may be analyzed before and/or between pulsed electrical field outputs to determine when, relative to fiducials within the cardiac signal, the output can safely be delivered. In some examples, the timing of therapy delivery is tailored to the patient's current cardiac state, such as the cardiac rate. In other examples, triggering signals can be analyzed to ensure that the trigger itself is appropriately detected.
