20110085675 | Switchable Two-Element Directional Microphone System - A directional microphone system includes a first microphone that is disposed so as to receive sound energy originating from a first direction, convert the sound energy into a first voltage to be presented at a output. A second microphone is disposed to receive sound energy from a second direction different from the first direction and converts the sound energy into a second voltage presented at a second output. A first amplification circuit provides a first voltage gain at a third output. A second amplification circuit provides a second voltage gain at a fourth output and a predetermined time delay compared to the first amplification circuit. A controlled switch selectively switches a coupling of the first output between the first amplification circuit and the second amplification circuit and vice versa, and the coupling of the second output between the second amplification circuit and the first amplification circuit and vice versa. An output processing circuit is coupled to the first amplification circuit and the second amplification circuit and subtracts the fourth output from the third output such that a generally cardioid-shaped response is provided at its output. | 04-14-2011 |
