TCL Selects DSP Group’s SmartVoice For Seamless Integration with the Google Assistant

DSP Group, Inc., a global leader in wireless chipsets, announced that TCL has integrated DSP Group’s SmartVoice technology into the Alcatel 3T 10 Tablet. By using SmartVoice to enable far-field voice control, TCL joins a list of innovative technology providers bringing efficient voice control to consumer devices.

The Alcatel 3T 10 tablet facilitates multitasking, leisure and relaxation thanks to its pre-installed support of Android 9.0 Pie and the Google Assistant. It has incorporated SmartVoice to activate and use the Google Assistant by simply saying “Hey Google” or “Ok Google”. The advanced artificial intelligence built into Android 9.0 Pie enables activities such as voice call and message management and hands-free audio control to play movies or music, and answer questions.

Powered by DSP Group’s low-power DBMD5 audio and voice processor, featuring high-accuracy far-field and two-way voice processing algorithms, SmartVoice provides a natural, seamless voice interface for the Alcatel 3T 10.
