A team led by researchers at the University of Washington has developed a shape-changing smart speaker, which uses self-deploying microphones to divide rooms into speech zones and track the positions of individual speakers. Here Allen School doctoral students Tuochao Chen (foreground), Mengyi Shan, Malek Itani, and Bandhav Veluri demonstrate the system in a meeting room.
