HOJO.

Between hardware and the real world: Hojo’s acoustic models.

Hojo’s in-house speech models are acoustic models, the layer through which hardware talks with the real world. Hojo-ASR turns what it hears into text; Hojo-TTS-Light speaks the reply. All four are open source under Apache-2.0.

Drawing: sound from the real world reaches the hardware and passes through ASR into Hojo’s acoustic model; the reply goes back through TTS-Light and out of the hardware into the world.ASRTTS-LIGHTREAL WORLDHARDWAREACOUSTIC MODEL
