CEVA Audio Front End Software Solution Becomes Alexa Voice Service (AVS) Qualified

Solution combines ClearVox far-field noise reduction software together with WhisPro™ neural network based keyword spotting (KWS) software, ready for integration with Alexa Voice Service-enabled devices

CEVA, licensor of wireless connectivity and smart sensing technologies and co-creation solutions, announced that its audio front end (AFE) software solution has become Alexa Voice Service (AVS) qualified. The solution, which combines CEVA's ClearVox™ far-field noise reduction and voice processing software together with WhisPro™, voice user interface neural network based keyword spotting (KWS) software, is a robust, ultra-low power software package ready for integration with AVS-enabled devices such as smart speakers, soundbars and more.

AVS is Amazon's cloud-based service that allows device makers to integrate an ever-increasing set of Alexa features and functions into compatible devices. By garnering an AVS qualification for its audio front end software solution, CEVA's semiconductor, ODM and OEM customers can utilize this software solution to seamlessly add Alexa-enabled services to their target device.

For companies looking to develop a complete smart and connected SoC that brings the power of Alexa to its customers, CEVA offers a broad range of licensable IP for audio System-on-Chips (SoCs), including audio/voice DSPs and AI engines, sensor fusion software, and wireless connectivity solutions for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, UWB, and cellular IoT. This enables customers to accelerate their complete SoC development and bring the power of Alexa to their target end devices.

Chad Lucien, VP & GM Sensors and Audio BU at CEVA, commented: "Becoming AVS qualified is powerful for any audio front end software solution and we are proud to have achieved this milestone for our ClearVox far-field and WhisPro software. AVS unlocks an incredible amount of functionality and experiences for smart devices, and we look forward to seeing how our software brings Alexa to a new generation of consumer, industrial and IoT devices."
