Voice activity detection

Technology that detects when someone is speaking, so a device can ignore silence and background noise.

Voice activity detection (VAD) lets a device tell speech apart from silence. AskLight’s room device uses it so that, while listening has been started, only short clips of speech are sent — not silence.
