Abstract

In some implementations, a device for providing dual uplink processing paths may include a human listening (HL) input processing unit configured to receive an audio stream and pre-process the audio stream to create a first audio signal adapted for human listening via a first uplink processing path, a machine listening (ML) input processing unit configured to receive the audio stream and pre-process the audio stream to create a second audio signal adapted for machine listening via a second uplink processing path, and a network interface unit configured to transmit the first audio signal via the first uplink processing path and transmit the second audio signal via the second uplink processing path to a remote server.
