Original Abstract Submitted
an electronic device with a microphone, a speaker, a processor, and a power tool battery pack connectable to and powering the speaker and the processor. the electronic device has software that can cause the processor to perform operations which can cause the electronic device to operate in first and second modes. while the electronic device is operating in the first mode, the device can generate first audio data representing user speech captured by the microphone which can be analyzed by the electronic device or a remote server. the electronic device can switch from operating in the first mode to operating in a second mode, where the electronic device can receive, second audio data from another electronic device. the electronic device can then output, using the speaker, audible content represented by the second audio data.
