How does it solve the problem of humans being able to detect that someone's looking at us? We tend to stop talking when we sense someone's staring at us.

- tzs 2y agoYou don’t need to stare at them. You only have to look at them for a moment to tell the system who you want to listen to. Then you can look away and it keeps listening to them. Actually from the description it sounds (no pun intended!) like you wouldn’t even have to look at them. You just would need to be facing their direction. You could be looking at something else in the direction, like the ground in front of you. When you tell it to start listening to the person you are looking at what it really does is start listening to the person whose sound is coming from that direction, which it figures out from arrival times at both ears.
