Deepgram Hackathon Idea #483

Closed DamienDeepgram closed 3 months ago

Goal

Reduce the amount of audio being transcribed that does not contain speech in the friend apps.

Approach

Use a Voice Activity Detector (VAD) in the apps to decide what to transcribe.

Example

20sec of silence followed by 10 seconds of speech

Today

All 30 seconds are transcribed

With a VAD

Only 10 seconds are transcribed

If you apply this logic to 12 hours per day of recording most likely only a small percentage of the day contains speech

Benefits

Longer battery life for your phone
Less silence being transcribed
