Voice AI Test Platform
(VATP)
Today’s audio-enabled products span a wide spectrum—from AI PCs, headsets, and smart speakers to voice assistant devices—each designed for diverse usage scenarios and functional requirements. However, when these products are deployed in noisy or acoustically complex environments, their performance and user experience can be significantly impacted by sound interference.
To address this challenge, Allion’s Acoustics Engineering Team has developed the Voice AI Test Platform (VATP), a comprehensive validation solution that enables precise measurement of a product’s voice recognition capability under various levels of background noise. AVTP ensures that voice command performance continues to meet the original product specifications and intended use cases.
Applications of VATP
The VATP solution has been successfully applied to functional validation of AI PCs, smart speakers, and video conferencing systems. With accurate and reliable test results, VATP demonstrates Allion’s technical expertise and testing leadership in voice validation.
◎ Best Validation Scenario (Golden Test Methodology):
Allion designs optimal test methodologies with clear objectives, comprehensive test plans, modularized scripts, and detailed test reports to ensure systematic and effective validation.
◎ 3x Testing Efficiency (8 hours → 24 hours):
Automated testing dramatically extends effective test time. A 24-hour manual test that would typically take three days to complete can now be executed in just one day using VATP, accelerating time-to-market and freeing up engineering resources.
◎ 100% Accuracy with Full Automation (Replacing Manual Testing):
With fully automated execution, VATP eliminates human error, ensuring accurate, repeatable, and reliable results. This minimizes defect escapes and improves customer satisfaction.
Critical Scenarios: Can Your Audio Product Deliver Reliable Performance?
We take the Consumer Electronics Ecosystem and the Automotive Ecosystem as illustrative examples.
◎ Within the Consumer Electronics Ecosystem, VATP can reconstruct acoustic environments and simulate the following usage scenarios:
- Home environment noise: Verifying the impact of interfering sound sources on the voice recognition accuracy of smart devices.
- Coffee shop environment noise: Evaluating how AI PC noise reduction functions affect the success rate of voice recognition.
- Video conferencing disruptions: Reproducing acoustic conditions when voice transmission interruptions occur, to identify the root cause.
◎ Within the Automotive Ecosystem, VATP can reconstruct and simulate background noise under various driving conditions:
- Background noise at different driving speeds: Validating the in-vehicle system’s ability to recognize voice commands.
- Passenger conversation noise: Assessing how multiple simultaneous conversations inside the vehicle affect voice recognition.
- Special sound sources (e.g., ambulance sirens): Measuring the system’s ability to recognize voice commands when exposed to critical external sounds.
For manufacturers, replicating these scenarios and conditions is complex and resource-intensive. VATP provides a comprehensive end-to-end solution to overcome these challenges.
