Wavio develops intelligent sound recognition development toolkits for developers to enhance the functionality and user experience of smart home devices, voice assistants, interactive products, and robotics. It enables developers to deploy install-and-run sound recognition software, capitalizing on proprietary audio signal processing algorithms through an intuitive development console. The Wavio sound assistant software can detect the relative source and type of real-time sounds via a sound recognizing assistant installed on a microphone hardware through command line interface tools (CLI).
