Abstract
A user may access multiple virtual assistants via a voice-enabled device. The device may receive a command from the user, detect a wakeword corresponding to one of the assistants, and send audio data to a command processing system corresponding to the selected assistant. The device transmits encrypted audio data to one or more systems and, upon detecting a wakeword or wake command corresponding to one of the systems, the device may provide an encryption key to that particular system. The system may decrypt and process the audio data without additional latency introduced by having to wait for the audio data to arrive.
