MULTI-MODAL INTERACTION WITH INTELLIGENT ASSISTANTS IN VOICE COMMAND DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17950668 titled 'MULTI-MODAL INTERACTION WITH INTELLIGENT ASSISTANTS IN VOICE COMMAND DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for waking up an intelligent assistant on an electronic device and determining the amount of vocabulary it uses during a listening mode based on the type of activation.
- The method detects when the intelligent assistant is activated on the device.
- It wakes up the intelligent assistant from a sleep mode in response to the activation.
- The method then determines the amount of vocabulary the intelligent assistant will use during a listening mode.
- The amount of vocabulary is based on the type of activation that triggered the wake-up.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in various electronic devices that have intelligent assistants, such as smartphones, smart speakers, and smart TVs.
- It can improve the user experience by allowing the intelligent assistant to adapt its vocabulary based on the type of activation.
Problems Solved
- The method solves the problem of an intelligent assistant using unnecessary vocabulary during a listening mode.
- It ensures that the intelligent assistant only acts upon relevant vocabulary based on the type of activation.
Benefits
- Users will have a more efficient and personalized experience with their intelligent assistants.
- The intelligent assistant will be able to provide more accurate and relevant responses to user queries.
- The method helps conserve device resources by reducing unnecessary processing of irrelevant vocabulary.
