"...no hardware solution..."
There is for new hardware. It's relatively simple to include a couple components on the mic input to filter out ultrasound.
There is indeed no hardware fix for anything already manufactured.

- rmonroe 9y agoThey are taking advantage of nonlinear properties in the microphone system, as described clearly in the article. There is no software filtering to protect against this using classical signal processing. That said, it may be possible to detect the difference between human speech and the ultrasonic trick with a machine learning solution.
- delinka 9y agoThe thing is, this is creating harmonic vibrations in the membrane at human speech frequencies. I really don't think you need to go with ML. It seems to me that if you remove the LPF, let the ADC access all the frequencies, then (either in the ADC or in software) detect the harmonics and ignore those with an ultrasound source. Edit: suggest LPF removal.
