 So we hear that nxp and hi, so who are you? My name is Danny Watson. I'm from the IOT Solutions team. So Here it says the world's first and only MCU solution with Alexa built-in. Is that true? That is true. Yes So what does it mean to have Alexa built-in and MCU? Basically, we do not need an external DSP Everything's done on the cortex M7 So because of the high power 600 megahertz we're able to do all the audio processing from beam forming noise suppression and echo cancellation also the wake word and also the PDM to PCM decimation of three microphones Is it as good as a DSP? It's as good as been qualified on the Amazon website, which you can go on to the development kits and it's Certified for far field. Does the nxp do DSPs too? It's included in the actual part as well So there's the DSP on the on the MCU as a CEO. No, there's the DSP is running on the MCU itself So there is a DSP. Yes So So that means around here, you can do a bunch of voice commands. Yes, correct So what would you do for example? So for example, we're demonstrating like a smart home with IOT So on this one you can say Alexa turn on the lights What you notice is all of them woke up and what happens is in the cloud ESP is done So it focuses on a single beam and then controls the lights. So They're like in a mesh or something basically they're synchronized in a single Alexa consumer account So they all work together Which means you can control various other things like the stove as well So is it a big deal to put in an MCU? It's a massive deal The reason being is because you're able to cut the price of actually the actual hardware in half because you don't need DDR you don't need MMC you don't need a PMIC It's on a four-layer PCB. So the overall cost of the actual design is absolutely cut Absolutely cut So for example right here, we see a little board Does it have your stuff in there? It has all our stuff in there. Yes. So your chip is on the other side, right? Our chip is that we've got a som on the back in the exact same size 30 millimeters and basically the Wi-Fi integrated as well as a TFA 1994 audio class the amplifier and you have one there one there one there Yep, correct. And when you speak they all listen. What's happening? They all listen and they're Quite loud so you don't really hear the response But they also have an integrated speaker membrane so they can actually get the response as well And they do internal echo cancellation everything? Correct. Yes So when they actually speak when the speaker is actually outputting it does an AEC So it cancels out the actual speaker output so you can still control it while music is playing So what is this? So this is the IDMX 8M mini This is basically demonstrating secure facial recognition and frictionless control So rather than it actually saying the wake word you can do facial recognition to detect that It's actually woken up and then control it with Alexa So there you first you wake up with your face and then you can Alexa otherwise it doesn't listen correct Yeah, it will not listen So if we actually press the the unlock button nothing will happen because my face is not being actually recognized Yeah, and then as soon as I put my face in front of it Alexa cancel off. I don't need to say the wake word So let's go back Yeah, so let's try that again What's the weather The mail time is usually defined as the system Okay, you miss them to miss understood me But the whole point is that it only works and I don't actually have to say a wake word I just talked to it explain what whether means. Yeah, that's pretty good. Yeah So Who's gonna adopt this everybody or pretty much we're targeting so many iot devices like it then now Are our customers like washing machine light switches ovens They're able to integrate voice without actually relying on an external part. They can integrate it by by default and What kind of challenge was it to make this work? So obviously you have to understand audio and you have to understand Obviously all the beamforming so integrating that IP to make sure it all works And also to do on a microcontroller is very very difficult because what it's never been done and to obviously the resources are more limited So, how do you do that? Are you part of the team that did that? I am part of the team Yeah, I'm one of the developers and yeah, we've been in it since the beginning and yeah It's you do it by sheer hard work and it's a hot core MCU hacking Pardon, sorry is the MCU hacking MC. Well, it's not quite It's like it's a it's a new MCU. It is it's been a it's an MCU that's been out for about a year It's the cortex and it's the cortex M7. It's the RT 10 6 a which is our part So it's just the one that's been in the market and you go and you Make it work. Yes, basically. Yeah, that's due to the enablement that the NXP do on our really as good as any other solution Correct. Yes. Yes, like Tested and everything it's all qualified Like I said, you can go into the Amazon developer kit website and you'll see this kit on the Amazon website as qualified So how much for the MCU the MCU I am an engineer so I don't have control the pricing so I don't Again, I'm an engineer so I don't really control pricing. Cool. Okay. Thank you. Yeah, no worries. Thanks
