A microphone assembly includes one or more transducers positioned in a
housing. Circuitry is coupled to the transducer for outputting an
electrical signal such that the microphone has a main lobe directed
forwardly and attenuates signals originating from the sides and/or rear.
The transducers can advantageously include multiple transducers, which,
with the circuit, produce a desired sensitivity pattern. The microphone
assembly can be employed in a vehicle accessory.
