  2. Microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone

    Since a conventional speaker is similar in construction to a dynamic microphone (with a diaphragm, coil and magnet), speakers can actually work "in reverse" as microphones. Reciprocity applies, so the resulting microphone has the same impairments as a single-driver loudspeaker: limited low- and high-end frequency response, poorly controlled ...

  3. Windows Speech Recognition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Speech_Recognition

    A prototype speech recognition Aero Wizard in Windows Vista (then known as "Longhorn") build 4093.. At WinHEC 2002 Microsoft announced that Windows Vista (codenamed "Longhorn") would include advances in speech recognition and in features such as microphone array support [8] as part of an effort to "provide a consistent quality audio infrastructure for natural (continuous) speech recognition ...

  4. Microphone connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone_connector

    Two pins are used for the mono headphone signal and two pins for the unbalanced microphone signal. The 4-pin XLR connector is also commonly used on amateur radio microphones, but transferring unbalanced audio instead, and using the 4th pin (with the common ground) for a push-to-talk (PTT) circuit activated by a button on the microphone.

  5. Input device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_device

    A user presses a key which transfers information to a computer. In computing, an input device is a piece of equipment used to provide data and control signals to an information processing system, such as a computer or information appliance. Examples of input devices include keyboards, computer mice, scanners, cameras, joysticks, and microphones.

  6. Noise-canceling microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-canceling_microphone

    The internal electronic circuitry of an active noise-canceling mic attempts to subtract noise signal from the primary microphone. The circuit may employ passive or active noise canceling techniques to filter out the noise, producing an output signal that has a lower noise floor and a higher signal-to-noise ratio .

  7. Wireless microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_microphone

    A wireless microphone, or cordless microphone, is a microphone without a physical cable connecting it directly to the sound recording or amplifying equipment with which it is associated. Also known as a radio microphone , it has a small, battery-powered radio transmitter in the microphone body, which transmits the audio signal from the ...

  9. Phantom power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantom_Power

    The transient generated when a microphone is hot-plugged into an input with active phantom power can damage the microphone and possibly the preamp circuit of the input [10] because not all pins of the microphone connector make contact at the same time, and there is an instant when current can flow to charge the capacitance of the cable from one ...
