Abstract:
In recent years, embedded system technologies and products for sensor networks and wearable devices used for monitoring people's activities and health have become the focus of the global IT industry. In order to enhance the speech recognition capabilities of wearable devices, this article discusses the implementation of audio positioning and enhancement in embedded systems using embedded algorithms for direction detection and mixed source separation. The two algorithms are implemented using different embedded systems: direction detection developed using TI TMS320C6713 DSK and mixed source separation developed using Raspberry Pi 2. For mixed source separation, in the first experiment, the average signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) at 1 m and 2 m distances was 16.72 and 15.76, respectively. In the second experiment, when evaluated using speech recognition, the algorithm improved speech recognition accuracy to 95%.

Imagine the sound is reflected back to the ears. Assuming that the source is very close to the human, the difference between hearing the two sounds—the emitted sound and the reflected sound—may be more than the minimum time for perceiving distinct sounds. If this is the case,...
