Recently, Tmall Genie released the Sound Pro smart speaker, which not only provides high-quality audio experience but also utilizes the Cat Ear algorithm, allowing for easy voice control for music switching or smart home control even at high volume; compared to traditional speakers, precise voice control offers a brand new user experience. Recently, I Love Audio disassembled the Tmall Genie Sound Pro smart speaker and discovered the R329 AI voice chip from Allwinner, which provides intelligent voice services. Let’s take a closer look at the details.
The Tmall Genie Sound Pro smart speaker features a unique design, crafted from double-layer yarn, giving it a distinctive feel, akin to a handcrafted artwork; the top adopts a UFO floating design, with a star ring light that pulses with the rhythm of the music at the junction with the body; the overall appearance is novel and unique, significantly different from traditional speakers, making it highly recognizable.
In terms of functional configuration, the Sound Pro smart speaker is equipped with the latest acoustic exploration innovations developed by the Tmall Genie Acoustic Laboratory, including a patented integrated cavity design, non-wrapped equalizer, and Cat Ear algorithm, as well as support for multi-platform aggregation solutions and user recognition for music playback, significantly enhancing audio quality and human-computer interaction experience. It also collaborates with Boston Acoustics for tuning, ensuring balanced audio quality across all frequencies while delivering an extreme bass experience.
In the intelligent voice module, the Allwinner R329 AI voice chip is used, which features a dual-core A53 at 1.5GHz, dual-core HIFI4 at 400MHz (2MB SRAM), and Arm China Zhouyi 0.256T AIPU; it integrates multiple audio ADCs and audio DACs; the built-in DDR design is streamlined, making it a powerful smart voice chip with AIPU. The Allwinner R329 can provide high integration application solutions for smart speakers and smart homes.
