Sensory Inc., a leader in speech and vision technologies that enhance the user experience and security of consumer electronics, today announced that its TrulyHandsfree™ technology is now available on the Vantage VoIP enterprise phone system from Avaya – powering the “Hello Vantage” wake word feature. TrulyHandsfree™, Sensory’s top-selling software solution, will enable Avaya Vantage users to make calls, video conference and check voicemail without having to touch a single button on the device.
“Found in our favorite apps, mobile devices, cars, and even homes, voice control is literally making everything we use daily more user friendly,” said Todd Mozer, CEO at Sensory. “Working with Avaya allows us to help enterprises and organizations streamline how employees use their desk phones via seamless hands-free voice control.”
“The Avaya Vantage portfolio redefines the UC desktop experience for our customers,” said Yogen Patel, Vice President & General Manager, Solutions & Technology at Avaya. “In addition to the modularity of the design and the completely customizable display, hands-free voice control rounds out the overall user experience, enabling Vantage to continue to raise the bar for the entire industry — delivering a truly unique solution that will boost productivity by accelerating work flows.”
Introduced in 2009, TrulyHandsfree revolutionized voice user interfaces by offering the first commercially successful embedded small vocabulary speech recognition system to feature an always-listening wake word. Incorporating Sensory’s smartest and most efficient deep neural network technologies to date, TrulyHandsfree takes embedded voice interfaces to new heights, offering an on-device voice user interface experience that is more natural and intuitive than ever before, while a new shallow learning approach compresses the model sizes down to run in ultra-low power and with minimal memory and MIPS.
