Abstract
A conversation analytics system including multiple microphones that each respectively capture at least a part of a single real world natural language conversation. The natural language data (for example, audio of natural language, or audio of natural language converted to text) from each of the multiple microphones is combined into a single combined piece of natural language data (for example, a combined audio file, or a combined piece of text). This combined piece of natural language data is subject to: (i) machine logic based natural language understanding; and/or (ii) community conversation analysis. The multiple microphones may be respectively built into mobile devices which are always on and which are generally always carried by the device owners on their respective persons.
