EveryWord™ Voice Control: Now with Sensory TrulyNatural

In addition to the Sensory TrulyHandsfree™ SDK technology suite that allows OEMs to create custom wake-words, small to medium command sets, and speaker verification models for a truly branded voice experience, EveryWord™ Voice Capture and Control Development Kit now features Sensory’s TrulyNatural, an embedded large vocabulary speech recognition platform, with natural language understanding. The software will find a home in IoT devices, home appliances, set-top boxes, and cars, among other places.

One of TrulyNatural’s key features is its ability to address privacy concerns, as it provides the devices with an intelligent natural-language user interface, while keeping voice data private and secure; voice requests never leave the device, nor are they ever stored. TrulyNatural can provide a natural language voice UI on just about any device, and can be deployed for domain-specific applications. It can require less than 10 Mbytes, or it can be scaled to support broad-domain applications like virtual assistants and call center chatbots with a virtually unlimited vocabulary.

Designed to run on an apps processor, TrulyNatural doesn’t require an internet connection, as all of the speech processing is done natively on the device. This results in a safe, secure, and consistent offering. It currently supports U.S. English. Later this year and next, Sensory will roll out U.K. English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. SDKs are available for Android, iOS, Windows and Linux.
