Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to computing device headset input. In examples, sensor data from one or more sensors of a headset device are processed to identify implicit and/or explicit user input. A context may be determined for the user input, which may be used to process the identified input and generate an action that affects the behavior of a computing device accordingly. As a result, the headset device is usable to control one or more computing devices. As compared to other wearable devices, headset devices may be more prevalent and may therefore enable more convenient and more intuitive user input beyond merely providing audio output.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to headset virtual presence techniques. For example, a participant of a communication session may not have an associated video feed, for example as a result of a user preference to disable video communication or a lack of appropriate hardware. Accordingly, a virtual presence may be generated for such a non-video participant, such that the non-video participant may be represented within the communication session similar to video participants. The virtual presence may be controllable using a headset device, for example such that movements identified by the headset device cause the virtual presence to move. In some instances, user input may be received to control emotions conveyed by the virtual presence, for example specifying an emotion type and/or intensity.
