Abstract

A system and method for storing data samples in discrete poses and recalling the stored data samples for updating a sound filter. The system determines that a microphone array at a first time period is in a first discrete pose of a plurality of discrete poses, wherein the plurality of discrete poses discretizes a pose space. The pose space includes at least an orientation component and may further include a translation component. The system retrieves one or more historical data samples associated with the first discrete pose, generated from sound captured by the microphone array before the first time period, and stored in a memory cache (e.g., for memorization). The system updates a sound filter for the first discrete pose using the retrieved one or more historical data samples. The system generates and presents audio content using the updated sound filter.
