Product Development: PD08 - Reusing and Prototyping to Accelerate Innovation in Audio Signal Processing
Presenter:Gabriele Bunkheila, MathWorks - Cambridge, UK
Innovative devices like the Amazon Echo are disrupting big segments of the audio market and shifting consumer expectations on performance and capabilities of audio and voice interfaces. As new products are driven to deliver increasingly complex features, successful manufacturers and IP providers need to reuse more design assets, deliver original innovation more efficiently, and prototype more quickly than ever before. In this session, you will learn about different techniques to integrate existing code and IP into early simulations of algorithms and system designs, ranging from embeddable code to cloud-based services. You will also be exposed to quick prototyping workflows, including methods for running in real-time and validating ideas on live real-world signals. The presentation will go through practical worked examples using MATLAB, while discussing some early-stage challenges in the design of voice-driven connected devices.
