Infineon Technologies AG announced the company has collaborated with Picovoice to jointly develop an end-to-end voice platform that brings voice AI to edge devices. This collaboration enables smart voice solutions in ultra-low power IoT devices using Infineon's PSoC? 6 microcontrollers (MCUs). This gives designers an alternative approach to evaluating and deploying wake-phase and intent recognition on the company's PSoC 6 products. The joint effort opens up new possibilities with on-device AI-enabled voice technology for the smart home and wearable applications using energy efficient PSoC 6 MCUs with comprehensive IoT connectivity support. The Picovoice platform creates an accurate and private voice interface that is now easily used with existing Infineon PSoC 6 solutions including seamless pairing with AIROC? Wi-Fi?, low power CapSense? touch interface and cloud connectivity. Leading in the highest sound quality capture, Infineon's XENSIV? MEMS microphones with industry's lowest SNR, wide dynamic range, low distortions and high acoustic overload point are included in this platform. Collaborating with Picovoice expands Infineon's machine learning and AI ecosystem by allowing system developers using PSoC 6 the option to add a new voice feature for innovative IoT applications. Developers can now use a PSoC 6 Pioneer Development Kit and the IoT Sense Expansion Shield with an option to sign-up for a free Picovoice trial account. Additionally, they can run code examples using Infineon's proven ModusToolbox? to bring differentiated smart home and wearable applications to market.
