Creating a single intelligent audio platform, the Qualcomm hopes to unify the solutions available on the market. The company realized that, with the emergence of domestic helpers, such as Google Home and Amazon Echo, several manufacturers are looking for their own ways to create their own 'smart audio devices'. Connected and smart audio devices.
For us, simple s, this strategy may seem a bit abstract, since none of these markets are as important today as smartphones. On the other hand, the wave of electronics connected only grows – and someone, in this case the Qualcomm, you need to manufacture the chips.
Call of Qualcomm Smart Audio, the platform will be available in the first half of 2018.
