The Meet the Module blog series pulls back the curtain and provides insight into the function and purpose of the processing blocks in Audio Weaver®, the low-code, hardware-independent design platform for the Audio of Things. In this episode, you'll meet AGC Core. Used for Automatic Gain Control, this module automatically adjusts the gain of an audio signal for the purpose of achieving optimal signal level. AGC is one of over 550 modules in Audio Weaver developed by DSP Concepts engineers and industry-leading 3rd party developers to help product makers craft better designs, quicker.

Analog Devices, the global IC leader and makers of the widely used SHARC® audio processors, has collaborated with DSP Concepts to optimize the performance of Audio Weaver® embedded libraries. Taking full advantage of the powerful SHARC+® core and its hardware accelerators, Audio Weaver streamlines the development process, and the joint optimization effort demonstrates real-world results that help product makers create competitive, feature-rich automotive audio designs.

True wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds have been one of the most successful innovations in audio. The TWS market has expanded rapidly, and there have been several landmark advancements, such as the inclusion of voice assistants and active noise cancellation. The technology surrounding these devices continues to progress, with new innovations that offer personalization and accessibility features, making devices more adaptive and inclusive.

In this article, we dive into the technologies offered by DSP Concepts and Fluent.ai. We take a closer look at how these technologies work together to make better voice-enabled products. We then examine other advancements in machine learning, and the coming opportunities for AI in voice-enabled products. What does all this mean for our products today, and tomorrow? How might advancements in artificial intelligence impact voice product development in the near future?
