AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In computer-generated real-world technologies, digital assistants struggle to determine appropriate responses to ambiguous user requests, especially when users use unclear terminology, leading to improper sensor activation and impacting device efficiency and privacy.

Method used

By receiving spoken input and performing semantic analysis, it determines whether additional contextual data is needed to satisfy the request. If the threshold is exceeded, sensors such as cameras are activated, and the response is determined based on the captured data.

Benefits of technology

It improves the selective activation of sensors, reduces power consumption, extends device battery life, and provides privacy protection by capturing only helpful activity.

Abstract

提供了用于操作数字助理的系统和方法。用于确定响应的示例性方法包括:在具有一个或多个处理器以及存储器的电子设备处,接收包括请求的口语输入,对该口语输入执行语义分析,基于该语义分析确定该电子设备需要附加上下文数据来满足该请求的可能性,以及根据所确定的可能性超过阈值,启用该电子设备的相机并且基于由该电子设备的该相机捕获的数据来确定对该请求的响应。
