Abstract

A system configured to enable remote control to allow a first user to provide assistance to a second user. The system may receive a command from the second user granting remote control to the first user, enabling the first user to initiate a voice command on behalf of the second user. In some examples, the system may enable the remote control by enabling wakeword detection for incoming audio data, enabling a second device to detect a wakeword and corresponding voice command from incoming audio data originating from a first device. For example, the second device may disable and/or modify echo cancellation processing, enabling the second device to detect the voice command from audio output based on the incoming audio data and/or from the incoming audio data itself.
