Will smart hardware become a new direction for voice entrepreneurship?

Now, the trend of intelligence is in full swing. However, whether it is intelligent voice technology or smart hardware, as a new industry, it has a short-term overvalued, long-term and underestimated the embarrassing situation. In fact, the current smart voice and smart hardware are more like a creative behavior, mostly stay in fun and interesting angle, although it has formed a foreign industry, but in the country has not yet entered the mass market.

Deep down, behind it is a kind of improvement and create market feedback differences. The subtext of the improvement is that the user market already exists, and creation is the need to excavate a new market. So, we can see that although smart wearable devices are already popular in the Geek circle, there are few successful cases in the mass market. Conversely, improved products like polar routing can be easily promoted. From this point of view, Creative Smart home is still on the eve of the outbreak. And for more smart voice and smart products, will improvements be a better choice?

In 2012, Siri made the IPhone 4S the most popular mobile phone, and it turned out that intelligent voice control was about to go into everyday life, and that control was becoming possible out of hand. But Siri has not made a qualitative leap in the popularity of Intelligent voice control. More often, Siri has become the target of being molested, and the burgeoning smart Voice entrepreneurship program is fading. For Siri and its imitators, intelligent voice control is in an awkward position to be useless.

The reasons for the development dilemma of speech control, there are about two: one is the interactive awkward, because the voice-controlled smartphone is not "intelligent", can not recognize the human needs, in the interactive environment, the cost of speech control is compared to manual operation does not reduce the increase; Although the mobile phone has become the center of mobile life, but most of its functions are still based on the software level, the relevant operation of the object is limited to the phone itself.

So, if a product can avoid user interaction embarrassment, can intelligently identify user needs, but also to increase the control of the scene, whether it can stand out? Poly-entropy technology developed by the small Tony-level speakers are trying to create such a product.

Simple human-Computer interaction

From the product form, small wisdom is an integrated intelligent operating system of the audio, with independent CPU, 4G storage space and independent wireless communication module. The user can control by the voice instruction to the small wisdom, realizes the song the automatic playback, the downloading, the alarm clock reminder and so on function, is a truly realizes the speech control intelligent sound.

Small wisdom work in the networked environment, can identify Mandarin, within 1 meters, the correct recognition rate of 96%, 3 meters range, about 94% of the recognition rate. In addition to independent work, the wisdom can also be connected to a higher access to the mobile phone app, accept remote instructions.

It can be said that Xiao Zhi is a robot that will sing according to People's voice commands.

Scalable Intelligent Control applications

Speech recognition and semantic analysis based on cloud database realize the basic function of small intelligence, in addition, the computational ability and processing ability of the small intelligence also endow it with the role of artificial intelligence control system. Through the Open interface to the Third-party intelligent devices, small wisdom can achieve any smart home equipment control.

We can imagine such a scene: When you feel the air is bad, as long as the small wisdom said "start the air purifier", the air purifier was opened. Update the software version of small wisdom, you can access new smart home appliances. In the process, the little wisdom is like a small robot, you only need to send instructions through the voice, it will complete the required tasks.

However, the current wisdom can only access a small number of smart devices. Developers hope that the end of the docking hardware manufacturers can reach 50~100 home or so. By then, the entire smart home will be able to achieve the basic independence of mobile phone operation.

Hardware is the future of Smart voice?

Small wisdom of the development of the predecessor is poly-entropy technology intelligent Voice Applications "smart 360". On January 15, 2012, 3 months after Siri was integrated, the download of Smart voice apps that could be smart to chat, call, and text messages was over. By April 2013, the number of users exceeded tens of millions.

Purely in terms of volume, as a smart voice software, "Smart 360" results are not cheap. But at that time, as the Giants entered, the overall market competition pattern changed dramatically. In order to find new opportunities, they have tried the path of voice software platform, and finally chose to enter the hardware.

Why choose this way of development? Poly-Entropy Technology Li Xuanfong explains that smart voice applications should be based on two things: one is speech semantic recognition, the other is the intelligent system with data analysis and learning ability. Without advances in artificial intelligence, speech control is meaningless. And if you want to perfect the integration of these two systems and implementation of scene applications, intelligent voice hardware is an inevitable trend.

To look back at the rise of Siri, it is actually more to stimulate the entrepreneur about the future of the nerves, it brings the entrepreneurial and capital excited, let smart voice entrepreneurship come to the present. And now, smart voice has begun to cross the border, to the new direction of hardware and software integration. However, in the face of an untapped smart hardware market, smart voice software can be transformed successfully?

And do it and cherish it.
