Voice over BLE case study: Using bluetooth LE remote controller inside Google's Voice search framework

摘要

Next generation set top boxes are increasingly Android powered set top boxes and are using Bluetooth LE (Low Energy) Remote controllers instead of legacy infra-red. Android powered set top boxes can easily be equipped with Google voice application, but unlike the standard devices such as smartphones and tablets, where the voice capture device is a microphone integrated into the device, the question of the voice capture device remains open. In this paper we present one solution for using a Bluetooth LE Remote controller as a voice capture device inside Google's Voice search framework on Android platforms.
