Challenge Name:

SPEECH/NO SPEECH ACTIVITY DETECTION

Product Description

Running Artificial Intelligence in tiny devices with limited computational resources is hard. Usual solutions depend on cloud computing, where the computation is outsourced to a remote powerful computer, which makes the system dependent on a reliable internet connection and compromises data privacy and may cause proprietary data leaks.

We, on the other hand, provide a fast EdgeAI Speech Activity Detection solution that can enable AI to be run locally, without internet connection, in tiny consumer-grade hardware. This approach is especially attractive since it promotes data privacy

Usage of Standards for data interoperability:

*Expose phase is open to all Experiment phase teams
