   Seven, the working principle of AI smart speakers




   AI smart speaker is not just a speaker, it is the entrance to a new generation of human-computer interaction. In the form of a Bluetooth speaker, it integrates functions such as playing online music, querying various types of information, voice entertainment interaction and even controlling smart home appliances. Relying on the rapid development of artificial intelligence and voice recognition technology over the years, today's AI smart speakers can provide correct and timely feedback to users' voice commands. The following describes how the two major functions of AI smart speakers are realized:




  1) The working principle of the content and service provided by AI smart speakers: Assume that consumers send to AI smart speakers


After issuing the instruction of "check the ticket from A to B", the voice interaction system of the AI smart speaker collects voice through the local processing unit of the voice algorithm and the audio decoding unit, reduces noise, recognizes the wake word, and converts the voice signal into a digital signal, which will be processed later The latter digital signal is uploaded to the cloud server, and the cloud server will perform speech digital code recognition and semantic understanding, and then transfer the information in the ticket reservation database to the AI smart speaker, and the AI smart speaker will restore the above digital signal to a voice signal through the sound effect unit And play it out.




2) The working principle of the AI smart speaker controlling the smart home: Assuming that the consumer issues an instruction to "turn off the light" to the AI smart speaker, the AI smart speaker uses voice collection and voice recognition to encode the voice digitally through the cloud server for semantic understanding, and The information obtained is fed back to the home router, and this control instruction is broadcast through the router. The smart home device has its own unique IP number. The smart home can identify whether the instruction involves its own IP number. Finally, the lamp socket is identified and turned off. Instructions for electric lights.




   The intelligent voice interaction system of the AI smart speaker is the key technology to realize its intelligence. The intelligent voice interaction system needs to have: 1) far-field recognition, 2) wake-up word wake-up, 3) voice recognition, 4) semantic understanding. Any device that supports an intelligent voice interaction system can become a control center using voice as a medium. Therefore, in addition to AI smart speakers, it can also be used in cars, mobile phones, and wearable devices.
