Voice Activity Detection IP-Core

Overview

Phonemic proposes a unique Voice Activity Detection (VAD) IP-Core based on innovative algorithms that are able to distinguish between between speech and ambient sounds with high accuracy.

The VAD IP-Core can be integrated in a SoC (System-on-Chip) and used as a wake-up mechanism for functional blocks of voice interface with more advanced inference capabilities, such as voice command recognition, to significantly save energy during non-speech periods.

It is expected to reduce the total power consumption of a voice interface up to 100 times, which means lower battery requirements and, in turn – significantly extending the battery life of an IoT device.

Applications

  • VAD IP-Core by Phonemic provides a significant power consumption reduction and high accuracy, even in a noisy environment.
  • Voice interfaces improve user experience for devices in many market segments. Healthcare (remote health monitors for seniors), automotive (safety features), consumer electronics, wearables, retail, smart home or even toys - all of these segments will benefit from our solution.
  • Phonemic's VAD is provided as a technology-independent soft-IP that can be integrated in any SoC design.
