    Abstract: A method performed by a first electronic device that includes a first speaker, the method includes, receiving, via a network, a representation of audio content, while a second electronic device is playing back the audio content through a second speaker, determining that the first electronic device is moving away from the second electronic device, and, in response to determining that the first electronic device is moving away from the second electronic device, using the representation of audio to play back the audio content through the first speaker.

    Abstract: A head-worn device can determine that a playback device is outputting audio content. A microphone of the head-worn device can sense the audio content that is output by the playback device. Spatial filters can be applied to one or more audio channels of additional audio content that compliments the audio content output by the playback device. The resulting spatialized audio can be played through speakers to a user wearing the head-worn device.

    Abstract: An opt-in indication is received that a wearer of a headworn device joins a conversation channel having a first target audio signal that contains an isolated voice of a first talker. In response, the first target audio signal is spatially rendered into a left speaker driver signal and a right speaker driver signal that are to drive a left speaker and a right speaker, respectively, of a first audio system. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

    Abstract: A method that includes driving a first speaker of a first electronic device using a mix of a first audio signal and a second audio signal. The method determines that the first electronic device is within a threshold distance of a second electronic device within an environment in which the first electronic device is located, where the second electronic device includes a second speaker. Responsive to determining that the first electronic device is within the threshold distance, causing the second electronic device to playback the second audio signal through the speaker and driving the first speaker using the first audio signal instead of the mix.

    Abstract: An eyewear assembly may include a frame configured to rest on a wearer's face, a plurality of extra-aural speakers, and a plurality of sensors. A processing circuitry may execute instructions stored in memory to process output data of the plurality of sensors to determine locations of a plurality of anatomic features of the wearer, detect an orientation of the eyewear assembly relative to the wearer of the eyewear assembly based on the locations of the plurality of anatomic features of the wearer, and determine, based on the orientation, a correction to an audio signal that is to drive an extra-aural speaker of the plurality of extra-aural speakers. Other aspects are also described and claimed.
