Voice input for ar wearable devices

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer readable media for voice input for augmented reality (AR) wearable devices are disclosed. Embodiments are disclosed that enable a user to interact with the AR wearable device without using physical user interface devices. A keyword is used to indicate that the user is about to speak an action or command. The AR wearable device divides the processing of the audio data into a keyword module that is trained to recognize the keyword and a module to process the audio data after the keyword. In some embodiments, the AR wearable device transmits the audio data after the keyword to a host device to process. The AR wearable device maintains an application registry that associates actions with applications. Applications can be downloaded, and the application registry updated where the applications indicate actions to associate with the application.
