Synaptics'Katana platform drives AI-enhanced voice processing using proprietary neural-network-enabled hardware and algorithms to clearly discern and capture user voices and related commands in challenging environments. Its AI-enabled, far-field noise-suppression technology removes extraneous sounds associated with challenging environments, and audio clarity is maintained with a proprietary four-speaker, acoustic echo-cancellation algorithm.
Supporting all major automated speech-recognition engines, the Katana-based solution provides a high level of voice quality with high energy efficiency.
