TalkTo for ST: AWS IoT

TalkTo for ST: AWS IoT

Jumpstart the design of Alexa-enabled appliances with ST’s AVS for AWS IoT qualified platform powered by Audio Weaver and TalkTo. ST Voice for AWS IoT brings high-quality voice control to the high-performing STM32H7 MCUs. The energy-efficient STM32H7 is ideal for low-cost, small, and simple connected devices that require state-of-the-art functionality such as far-field audio capture and natural language understanding.

AVS Integration for AWS IoT

  • Integrate Alexa into any connected device with STM32H7 MCUs
  • Out of the box connectivity to AWS IoT

Reliable far-field performance

  • AVS 2.1 qualified
  • Production ready algorithms

Cost-effective BOM for small form factors

  • Runs on single low-cost STM32H7 MCU
  • No external memory required
  • Optimized for MIPS and Memory

Audio Front-end Features

DSP Concepts’ TalkTo provides reliable far-field performance in noisy environments

  • • 2-mic Beamformer with Single Channel Noise Reduction
  • • State-of-the-art noise cancellation with Adaptive Interference Canceller (AIC)
    • ○ No reference signal needed
    • ○ Eliminates 30dB of external noise sources such as background music or a booming movie
  • • 35dB Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) for excellent barge-in performance
