Designed with software developers in mind, TrulyHandsfree significantly simplifies the development of speech recognition applications, greatly reducing the amount of time necessary to implement a speech-controlled user experience. Summary of TrulyHandsfree SDK Improvements:
"Integrating always-on, always-listening speech triggers and speech command functionality into the user experience of software and apps used to require a deep understanding of how speech technologies work. With Sensory's latest TrulyHandsfree SDK, we've made it simple for developers to integrate these must-have UX technologies into their products," said Jacques de Villiers, Engineer, Technology Deployment at Sensory. "We've worked closely wit our partners to understand what they wanted and completely redesigned our SDK to incorporate dataflow and inversion-of-control techniques to greatly reduce the overhead and complexity of designing TrulyHandsfree technology into applications."
