摘要： Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media including instructions for noise suppression are described. A head mountable system for noise suppression includes a wearable housing; a coherent light source configured to project light towards a facial region of the head; a detector configured to receive coherent light reflections from the facial region associated with facial skin micromovements and to output associated reflection signals; and a processor configured to: analyze the reflection signals to determine speech timing; receive audio signals from at least one microphone; correlate the reflection signals with the received audio signals to determine portions of the audio signals associated with the words spoken by the wearer; and output the determined portions of the audio signals associated with words spoken by the wearer, while omitting output of other portions of the audio signals not containing the words spoken by the wearer.

摘要： Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media including instructions for providing private answers to silent questions are described. Providing private answers to silent questions includes receiving signals indicative of particular facial micromovements in an absence of perceptible vocalization; accessing a data structure correlating facial micromovements with words; using the received signals to perform a lookup in the data structure of particular words associated with the particular facial micromovements; determining a query from the particular words; accessing at least one data structure to perform a look up for an answer to the query; and generating a discreet output that includes the answer to the query.

摘要： Systems and methods are disclosed for determining textual transcription from minute facial skin movements. In one implementation, a system may include at least one coherent light source, at least one sensor configured to receive light reflections from the at least one coherent light source; and a processor configured to control the at least one coherent light source to illuminate a region of a face of a user. The processor may receive from the at least one sensor, reflection signals indicative of coherent light reflected from the face in a time interval. The reflection signals may be analyzed to determine minute facial skin movements in the time interval. Then, based on the determined minute facial skin movements in the time interval, the processor may determine a sequence of words associated with the minute facial skin movements, and output a textual transcription corresponding with the determined sequence of words.

摘要： Systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for removing noise from facial skin micromovement signals. Removing noise from facial skin micromovements includes, during a time period when an individual is involved in at least one non-speech-related physical activity, operating a light source in a manner enabling illumination of a facial skin region of the individual; receiving signals representing light reflections from the facial skin region; analyzing the received signals to identify a first reflection component indicative of prevocalization facial skin micromovements and a second reflection component associated with the at least one non-speech-related physical activity; and filtering out the second reflection component to enable interpretation of words from the first reflection component indicative of the prevocalization facial skin micromovements.

摘要： Wearable coherent light sensing systems and methods are disclosed. In one implementation, a system may include a wearable coherent light source configured to direct light towards a facial area; a wearable sensor configured to receive light source reflections and to output associated reflection signals; and a processor operable in an idle mode and in a high power mode. In the idle mode, the processor is configured to receive the reflection signals, process the reflection signals to identify trigger in the reflection signals, and automatically switch to the high power mode upon identification of the trigger. In the high power mode, the processor is configured to analyze the reflection signals to identify facial movements associated with silent speech. Following the identification of the facial movements associated with the silent speech, the processor is configured to decipher the facial movements and generate an output associated with the silent speech.

摘要： A method for generating speech includes uploading a reference set of features that were extracted from sensed movements of one or more target regions of skin on faces of one or more reference human subjects in response to words articulated by the subjects and without contacting the one or more target regions. A test set of features is extracted a from the sensed movements of at least one of the target regions of skin on a face of a test subject in response to words articulated silently by the test subject and without contacting the one or more target regions. The extracted test set of features is compared to the reference set of features, and, based on the comparison, a speech output is generated, that includes the articulated words of the test subject.
