==HOTWORD DETECTION ON MULTIPLE DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233727 titled 'HOTWORD DETECTION ON MULTIPLE DEVICES

==Simplified Explanation==
The patent application describes methods, systems, and apparatus for detecting hotwords on multiple devices using audio data.

* Receiving audio data corresponding to an utterance.
* Determining the likelihood of the utterance containing a hotword.
* Calculating a loudness score for the audio data.
* Determining an amount of delay time based on the loudness score.
* Transmitting a signal to initiate speech recognition processing after the delay time.

==Key Features and Innovation==
* Detection of hotwords on multiple devices.
* Utilization of loudness score to determine delay time for processing.
* Efficient speech recognition processing initiation.

==Potential Applications==
This technology can be applied in smart home devices, virtual assistants, and other voice-controlled systems.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for hotword detection on multiple devices are disclosed. in one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, by a computing device, audio data that corresponds to an utterance. the actions further include determining a likelihood that the utterance includes a hotword. the actions further include determining a loudness score for the audio data. the actions further include based on the loudness score, determining an amount of delay time. the actions further include, after the amount of delay time has elapsed, transmitting a signal that indicates that the computing device will initiate speech recognition processing on the audio data.
