Voice control is becoming a new way for consumers to more easily manage their smart home devices. The addition of Alexa, integrated through Meeami Technologies' ClearVoice far-field voice enhancement software solution, makes it easier for mesh network manufacturers to provide voice capabilities to their customers layered on Qualcomm® Wi-Fi Mesh platforms.
The Qualcomm Mesh Networking Development Kit for Amazon AVS integrates all previously announced features available in Qualcomm's Mesh Networking Platform Reference Design, with definition kit elements now including:
- IPQ4019 Integrated Network Processor.
- Integrated audio decoding and post-processing.
- Multi-microphone FFV (far-field voice) and WWD (wake-up word detection)
- Support for various I/O technologies.
- Complete software stack of the Qualcomm mesh networking platform.
