INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM KEYBOARD MICROPHONE ARRAY FOR AUDIO CAPTURE AND QUALITY PRESENTATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17875932 titled 'INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM KEYBOARD MICROPHONE ARRAY FOR AUDIO CAPTURE AND QUALITY PRESENTATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an information handling system keyboard that includes an array of microphones with a specific layout. This layout allows the microphones to capture human voice sounds and isolate voices coming from a specific distance and orientation, while filtering out other voices and non-voice sounds. The keyboard also has a display that shows a visual indication of voice quality, providing instructions to the speaker on how to adjust their voice capture to achieve the desired quality for video or audio conferences. The keyboard display also supports an interface to control a keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) switch that is connected to the keyboard.

  • The keyboard has an array of microphones with a defined layout.
  • The microphones can capture human voice sounds.
  • The layout of the microphones allows for the isolation of voices from a specific distance and orientation.
  • Non-voice sounds and other voices can be filtered out.
  • The keyboard display shows a visual indication of voice quality.
  • The display provides instructions to the speaker on how to adjust their voice capture.
  • The keyboard display supports an interface to control a KVM switch.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Video and audio conferences: The keyboard can be used in information handling systems to improve voice capture quality during video or audio conferences.
  • Voice recognition systems: The array of microphones and voice isolation capabilities can be utilized in voice recognition systems to enhance accuracy.
  • Gaming: The technology can be applied in gaming keyboards to improve voice chat quality and reduce background noise.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Poor voice capture quality: The technology helps to isolate and enhance the capture of voices while filtering out unwanted sounds, improving the overall voice capture quality.
  • Difficulty in adjusting voice capture: The visual indication and instructions provided by the keyboard display assist the speaker in making adjustments to achieve the desired voice capture quality.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved voice capture quality: The technology allows for better isolation and capture of voices, resulting in clearer and more accurate audio during conferences or voice recognition.
  • Enhanced user experience: The visual indication and instructions provided by the keyboard display make it easier for the speaker to adjust their voice capture, leading to a more seamless and efficient communication experience.
  • Versatility: The keyboard display also supports control of a KVM switch, providing additional functionality and convenience for users.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information handling system keyboard includes an array of microphones having a defined layout that supports location of human voice sounds captured by the array of microphones to isolate voices originating from a defined distance and orientation while filtering other voices and non-voice sounds. A display included in the keyboard depicts a visual indication of voice quality that can include instructions to a speaker regarding adjustments to help obtain a desired voice capture quality to support a video or audio conference of an information handling system interfaced with the keyboard. The keyboard display also supports an interface to control a keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) switch interfaced with the keyboard.
