Retune DSP's Wake Word Engine Now Available for CEVA Audio/Voice DSPs

Retune DSP, a provider of digital signal processing solutions for voice control and communication, has optimized its VoiceSpot Wake Word Engine for CEVA's audio/voice DSPs, including the CEVA-BX, CEVA-X, and CEVA-TeakLite families.

VoiceSpot is anembedded wake word and small vocabulary speech recognition engine, enabling voice-wake and command and control on memory-constrained, battery-operated edge devices.

"CEVA's wide-reaching success in powering intelligent edge devices with their industry-leading audio/voice DSPs makes them an ideal partner for our VoiceSpot wake word engine," said Ulrik Kjems, CEO of Retune DSP, in a statement. "Our small-memory-footprint solution delivers outstanding voice-wake performance when implemented on the CEVA DSPs. Together, we can accelerate the adoption of voice command and control in smart devices, no matter the form factor or power constraints."

"Retune DSP is a valued algorithm partner to CEVA, and we're pleased to announce our collaboration with them around their VoiceSpot technology," said Moshe Sheier, vice president of marketing at CEVA, in a statement. "Voice is gaining rapid momentum as a must-have user interface for many smart devices, and VoiceSpot running on our audio/voice DSPs provides a compelling offering for this burgeoning market."
