Voice Assistant Devices

As Smart Speaker popularity increases, users are demanding faster responses, a privacy-focused design and ultra-reliable connectivity. This requires a change; away from Cloud-exclusive servicing and towards greater edge (in-chip) processing. Edge processing offers a faster response and more robust security to protect users’ data and uses less power and bandwidth.

To meet demand for more powerful, more capable next-generation digital assistants we’re already ahead of the game. Our latest VAD platforms offer market-leading in-chip processing performance, powerful, in-house designed AI engines, Hi-Fi audio plus the option of integrating displays and smart cameras – all from a single chip.

MediaTek NeuroPilot & APU’s for Cutting-Edge AIoT Devices

MediaTek chipsets for Voice Assistant Devices build on our established NeuroPilot AI ecosystem that allows developers to tap into their computing capabilities such as CPUs, GPUs and APUs (AI Processing Units). The time to migrate applications between platforms is minimized, reducing costs and accelerating time to market.

Our expertise in designing in-chip APUs means we are tailoring our chipsets to provide unique solutions that maximize performance and power efficiency, providing brands with the tools and platforms to make incredible, fresh experiences at home or on the go.

MediaTek’s Far-Field algorithm is designed to provide digital assistants with accurate listening and interpretation skills in difficult environments, such as loud background noise, echo, or where many people are talking at once. Based on this platform and in collaboration with Amazon, MediaTek has introduced a Development Kit to help brands develop products with Alexa built-in.
