  New research reveals that Apple is looking at how to make Siri detect particular voices, and also determine their location, solely through vibrations. Two newly-revealed patent applications show that Apple is investigating different ways that devices can detect people, or interact with them. The major one would have Siri able to recognize individual people and their spoken commands — without the device needing a regular microphone.

A future Apple Watch may not need microphone holes in order to detect voices Two newly-revealed patent applications show that Apple is investigating different ways that devices can detect people, or interact with them. The major one would have Siri able to recognize individual people and their spoken commands -- without the device needing a regular microphone. "Self-Mixing Interferometry Sensors Used to Sense Vibration of a Structural or Housing Component Defining an Exterior Surface of a Device," is concerned with using self-mixing interferometry (SMI). SMI involves detecting a signal "resul...
