Abstract

For using image data to adjust a microphone setting, methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed. One apparatus includes a camera that captures image data, a directional microphone that captures audio signals, a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The processor determines a location of a user relative to the apparatus using the image data and adjusts microphone settings for direction-of-amplification based on the location of the user.
