Nxp Adds ‘speech To Intent’ Engine For Edge Devices

NXP has developed the VIT Speech to Intent engine, a natural language processing system designed to rival cloud-based systems such as ChatGPT without the need for a connection. This engine is part of NXP’s Voice Intelligent Technology (VIT) software suite and allows people to speak naturally to smart machines across IoT, industrial and automotive applications. The software currently supports English language interactions, with support for Mandarin coming later this year and additional support planned for Spanish, German, Korean, French and Japanese in 2024. VIT Speech to Intent is available and suitable for use on NXP MCUs and MPUs with ARM Cortex M7, M33 and A53 cores.
