Far Field Mic Array for Voice Activated Devices

Natural Human-to –Machine hands free Communication: Voice UI

AMI Technologies Voice User Interface (Voice UI) technology accelerating the development of the Far Field Mic array solutions to improve automatic speech recognition (ASR) for natural Human-to-Machine hands free communications. Our best 2 Mic or 4 Mic Far filed array provided the flexibility of adopting the technology to any voice enabled devices.

With the voice barge-in capabilities user can control the device from 5 meters to 8 meters distance even in noisy environments and playing the sound. Offline Trigger phrase or wake word integrated in our far filed technology will activate the device to send the clean audio data to the cloud services like Google or Amazon etc .

AMI Technologies and Amazon Alexa :

AMI Technologies offers the amazon web services integration along with our Voice UI technologies , this helps the OEMS and ODMs to go to the market fast and reduce the development time and cost . AMI Technologies noise reduction and echo cancellation software modules ensure the best performance and improve the ASR for hands free natural communication.

Technology

Our Far Field Mic Array reference design for Voice Enabled Devices like Smart Phones, Wearables, Hearables and IoT devices will offer very flexible design and tuning on the final product, it reduces the 90% development cost and time. It includes the below Speech Processing Modules along with the real time firmware to improve Trigger Word detection and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)
