Real-Time Speech Processing Software for Human-Machine Interfaces
Control connected & edge systems with speech: a heads-up, hands-off modality.
Cyrus speech-to-text & command extractor enables hands-free command & control and data entry, completely on-device, meaning the data is never sent to third parties. Users may define the grammar that specifies the allowable voice commands or phraseology recognized by the system.
Features
- Flexible language model (grammar or unconstrained and context-aware) allows full customization to specific applications.
- Flexible deployment: online or offline; mobile devices, embedded processors and cloud servers; Linux, Windows, Raspberry Pi and Android Team Awareness Kit.
- Flexible control: supports multimodal control for combining speech with other modalities (gesture, gaze).
- Highly extendable: keyword spotting, emotion detection, machine translation, language & speaker identification.
- Noise robust.
- Accent robust.
- Extensible language support (20+ languages).
- API for seamless application integration.
