RTI Adds Voice to Automation

  • PDF

RTI provides a simple means for installers to add voice control to the company's control and automation systems-- a 2-way driver for the Tenflare Voice Viper CTL voice control system.

Voice ViperDeveloped for the custom installation market, the Voice Viper hardware solution claims to provide accurate and responsive hands-free control. It is always-on, with in-wall microphones reacting only to spoken commands (256 in total) while ignoring ambient conversations.

The compact hardware module communicates to RTI control systems via RS-232 or ethernet to provide voice control over all electronic systems in homes or commerical facilities, from AV equipment to HVAC, lighting and security systems, among others.

The drag-and-drop Integration Designer environment takes care of integration duties.

"The Voice Viper driver adds another exciting interface to the RTI control ecosystem-- the human voice," RTI says. "While voice control products have traditionally had limitations-— whether it's the need to physically activate them or their limited number of control phrases-— Tenflare's solution has really taken the concept to new heights. Voice Viper is the perfect complement to our user interfaces in settings where users need both hands free, such as a residential kitchen or entryway, or a corporate boardroom."

The Voice Viper driver is available now on the Driver Store in the RTI website.
