Abstract
Implementations for selecting an input device based on characteristics of the input signals from those input devices are described. A first input signal is received from a first input device of a participant device participating in a media conference and a second input signal is received from a second input device of the participant device. A first characteristic of the first input signal and a second characteristic of the second input signal are determined. The first characteristic is compared to the second characteristic. It is determined that a quality of the second input signal is greater than a quality of the first input signal based on comparing the first characteristic to the second characteristic. The second input device is selected based on determining that the quality of the second input signal is greater than the quality of the first input signal.
