How Does Google Meet Noise Cancellation Work?

Google’s new AI-powered smart noise cancellation feature on Google Meet is yet another big step from the tech giant in terms of the real-time cloud-based audio processing. Google uses a secured Artificial Intelligence network to process the audio in real-time to filter out the “unwanted” noise. As of now, the Noise Cancellation feature seems to filter out almost everything other than the human voice. However, it does not exclude several noises in order to retain the naturality in conversations, according to Google.

You could filter out the generic noises like door slamming, crunching, ticking, tapping, dog barking, etc. with the Google Meet denoiser. The voice output is still audible, even with a noticeable sound loss.

There is no indicator to show if the Noise Cancellation on Google Meet is enabled. However, you could still feel the blurriness in the voice output during the conversation.
