Voice Audio Message Extraction for Intent and Recipient Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing voice-controlled devices have limited functionality in performing tasks and are unable to efficiently extract and deliver audio messages based on user intent and intended recipients.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for capturing and analyzing audio data to determine the intent to send a message, identifying the intended recipient, and delivering the message payload to the target recipient, utilizing speech processing services and message management systems.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If voice-controlled devices analyze audio data to determine intent and deliver messages, then the functionality and versatility of the devices is improved, but the device complexity increases due to the need for speech processing services and message management systems
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces speech processing services and message management systems as intermediary components that mediate between the voice-controlled device and the message delivery function. These intermediaries handle the complex tasks of audio data analysis, intent determination, and message routing, allowing the core device to maintain simplicity while gaining enhanced functionality through service-based architecture
2Productivity
If the system extracts and delivers audio messages based on user intent, then the productivity and efficiency of message delivery is improved, but the loss of time increases due to the multi-step process of capturing, analyzing, and delivering messages
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by capturing and analyzing audio data in advance to determine user intent before actual message delivery is needed. The speech processing services pre-process the audio streams, identify intents, and prepare message delivery parameters, enabling more efficient real-time message routing while the time loss is minimized through parallel processing of multiple audio streams
Data Source
AI summary
Audio data, corresponding to an utterance spoken by a person within a detection range of a voice communications device, can include an audio message portion. The audio data can be captured and analyzed to determine the intent to send a message. Based at least in part upon that intent, a remaining portion of the audio data can be analyzed to determine the intended message target or recipient, as well as the portion corresponding to the actual message payload. Once determined, the audio file can be trimmed to the message payload, and the message payload of the audio data can be delivered as an audio message to the target recipient.
