  • Patent number: 11922948
    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for multi-mode voice triggering for audio devices. An audio device may store multiple voice recognition models, each trained to detect a single corresponding trigger phrase. So that the audio device can detect a specific one of the multiple trigger phrases without consuming the processing and/or power resources to run a voice recognition model that can differentiate between different trigger phrases, the audio device pre-loads a selected one of the voice recognition models for an expected trigger phrase into a processor of the audio device. The audio device may select the one of the voice recognition models for the expected trigger phrase based on a type of a companion device that is communicatively coupled to the audio device.
    Type: Grant
