  • Publication number: 20200075013
    Abstract: According to one or more aspects of the present disclosure, operations related to providing transcriptions may include obtaining a first transcription of first audio obtained by a first device during a communication session conducted between the first device and a second device. The operations may further include providing the first transcription for presentation of the first transcription by a display device during the communication session. In addition, the operations may include providing, in response to a transcription quality indication, a second transcription of second audio obtained by the second device during the communication session for presentation of the second transcription by the display device during the communication session.

  • Publication number: 20200035242
    Abstract: A system is provided that includes a first network interface for a first network type and a second network interface for a second network type that is different from the first network type. The system also includes at least one processor configured to cause the system to perform operations. The operations may include obtaining, from the first network interface, audio from a communication session with a remote device established over the first network and obtaining an indication of a communication device available to participate in the communication session and direct audio obtained from the communication session to a remote transcription system. The operations may also include directing the audio to the second network interface for transmission to the communication device, obtaining transcript data from the remote transcription system based on the audio, and directing the transcript data to the second network interface for transmission to the communication device.

  • Publication number: 20190355364
    Abstract: According to one or more aspects of the present disclosure, operations related to selecting a transcription generation technique may be disclosed. In some embodiments, the operations may include obtaining multiple user ratings that each correspond to a different one of multiple transcriptions. Each transcription may be obtained using a first transcription generation technique and may correspond to a different one of multiple communication sessions. The operations may further include selecting, for a subsequent communication session that occurs after the multiple communication sessions, a second transcription generation technique based on the user ratings. In addition, the operations may include providing the subsequent transcription to a device during the subsequent communication session.

  • Patent number: 10332521
    Abstract: A method may include obtaining information from multiple local devices. The information may indicate a configuration of each of the multiple of local devices with respect to a capability to: receive and broadcast remote audio and display transcriptions of the remote audio. The method may also include establishing a communication session with a remote device and after establishing the communication session with the remote device, obtaining the remote audio from the remote device. The method may further include directing the remote audio to a first local device of the multiple local devices based on the first local device being configured to receive and broadcast remote audio. The method may also include directing transcript data that includes a transcription of the remote audio to a second local device of the multiple local devices based on the second local device being configured to display transcriptions of the remote device audio.

  • Patent number: 10304459
    Abstract: A method may include establishing a communication session with a remote device over a network. After establishing the communication session with the remote device, the method may include obtaining remote audio from the remote device that is provided by the remote device as part of the communication session. The method may also include directing the remote audio received from the remote device to a local device participating in the communication session and to a remote transcription system and obtaining transcript data from the remote transcription system based on the remote audio. The transcript data may include a transcription of the remote audio. The method may further include directing the transcript data to a television for presentation of the transcription of the remote audio by the television such that the transcription of the remote audio is presented substantially aligned with presentation of the remote audio by the local device.

  • Patent number: 10192554
    Abstract: A method may include obtaining audio data originating at a first device during a communication session between the first device and a second device and providing the audio data to a first speech recognition system to generate a first transcript based on the audio data and directing the first transcript to the second device. The method may also include in response to obtaining a quality indication regarding a quality of the first transcript, multiplexing the audio data to provide the audio data to a second speech recognition system to generate a second transcript based on the audio data while continuing to provide the audio data to the first speech recognition system and direct the first transcript to the second device, and in response to obtaining a transfer indication that occurs after multiplexing of the audio data, directing the second transcript to the second device instead of the first transcript.

  • Patent number: 9293440
    Abstract: A method for interconnecting a die on a substrate of an electronic package. The method includes the steps of forming a plurality of free-end wire bonds on the die, wherein the free-end wire bonds are upstanding from the die, and encapsulating the free-end wire bonds in an encapsulation layer. Planarizing the encapsulation layer is performed so that the free-end wire bonds are exposed for electrical connection. Interconnecting the free-end wire bonds is provided by applying an interconnection layer on the encapsulation layer.
