TalkTo, the Audio Processing Solution

#DSPConcepts #TalkTo #Voice #Audio DSP Concepts, Inc., a developer of embedded audio processing solutions, has launched TalkTo, a new brand and a major expansion of its voice recognition technologies. TalkTo is a family of software-based Audio Front Ends for voice-controlled products. It uses advanced microphone processing and machine learning techniques to deliver highly reliable voice control, even in high-noise environments.
With TalkTo, product makers can now offer a voice-based user experience in categories where it was previously impossible, such as set-top boxes, multichannel soundbars,
kitchen appliances, and TVs. In these applications, voice recognition is challenging because the product’s microphones are subjected to a wide variety of loud, interfering sounds.
Most voice-controlled products can cancel the sound from their own speaker, but can do little or nothing to cancel the unpredictable noise sources in busy homes such as nearby TV’s, air conditioners, appliances, and music coming from other devices. TalkTo continually monitors the environment and learns the character of any interfering noise, then adapts its noise cancelling to provide the clearest possible voice signal for local and cloud-based voice recognition engines. TalkTo is so sophisticated it can even cancel noise from
multichannel sources such as soundbars — a task that completely overwhelms most voice control systems.
