Abstract:
Disclosed herein are example techniques to support multiple voice assistant services. An example implementation may involve a playback device continuously capturing, via the at least one microphone, audio into one or more buffers and analyzing the captured audio using a first wake-word detection algorithm and a second wake-word detection algorithm. When one of the first wake-word detection algorithm or the second wake-word detection algorithm detects, in the captured audio, a wake-word corresponding to a particular voice assistant service of (a) the first voice assistant service or (b) the second voice assistant service, the playback device transmits the captured audio to one or more servers associated with the particular voice assistant service. After transmitting the captured audio, the playback device receives, via the network interface, at least one instruction based on the captured audio; and performs one or more actions based on the at least one instruction.

Claim (Index 17):
The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 16 , wherein transmitting the captured audio to one or more servers associated with the particular voice assistant service comprises transmitting the captured audio to the first voice assistant service based on detection of the first wake word in the captured audio, and wherein the method further comprises:\n further capturing, via the at least one microphone, audio into the one or more buffers; analyzing the further captured audio using the first wake-word detection algorithm and the second wake-word detection algorithm; detecting, in the further captured audio, the second wake word via the second wake-word detection algorithm; after detecting the second wake word, transmitting the further captured audio to one or more servers associated with the second voice assistant service; after transmitting the further captured audio, receiving from the second voice assistant service, via the network interface, at least one instruction based on the further captured audio; and after receiving the at least one instruction from the second voice assistant service, performing one or more actions based on the at least one instruction from the second voice assistant service.
