Abstract

In recent years, microphone array signal processing has been actively studied in the field of engineering. In consideration of our hope that children´s interest in this technology will contribute to the future development of science and technology, we have developed the KIKIWAKE system with a microphone array and conducted the Prince Shotoku Game to promote children´s interest. Then, we confirmed the effectiveness of the system through interviews.
