Notes:

On November 19, Dr. Wang Chenglu, President of Huawei Consumer BG Software Engineering Dept, officially released HUAWEI HiAI 3.0 at the Software Green Alliance Developer Conference. Evolving from device-side AI to distributed AI, what will HUAWEI HiAI 3.0 bring to all-scenario smart life? This time, we will define it with "superb".

Currently, consumers are exposed to a large number of AI applications, such as voice assistant, AI photography, and image beautification. The application scenarios are limited. In fact, with the evolution from device-side AI to distributed AI, resource and computing power sharing among multiple devices will greatly expand application scenarios of device-side AI, further enabling developers to achieve more smart innovations and bringing superb experience to consumers.

HUAWEI HiAI 3.0 provides the distributed computer vision (CV) and automatic speech recognition (ASR) capabilities, which can help people exercising at home achieve an effect similar to that under personal training guidance in the gym. The distributed CV can be used to identify key elements of a human body in 3D. User can capture motion postures of multiple angles in real time by using cameras at different locations, and correct the postures by using multiple screens. With the open ASR capability, users can use the smart speaker to control the movement pace through voice interaction and further assist consumers in personal training at home.

As HUAWEI HiAI 3.0 is combined with distributed technologies, users can connect a smartphone to their car, use the camera inside the car to detect driving behavior, and use the AI chip computing power of the smartphone to remind them of dangerous behaviors such as fatigue driving. All these can be performed in an in-vehicle network environment. The lower-latency local data computing helps drivers better protect themselves.

HUAWEI HiAI 3.0 provides one-time service access and multi-device adaption experience. Users can enjoy services, such as voice assistant and HiBoard on devices including the mobile phones, tablets, smart screens, and smart speakers.

Huawei HiAI Helps Deaf and Mute People

Notes:

The picture is from The Silent Child, a film that won the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film in 2018. This film is about a deaf girl called Libby, played by Maisie Sly, a little girl with hearing impairments in real life. Her family's hearing was normal. She was always the one that was ignored at home due to lack of interaction with her family. In school, she often sat alone. Even though she wants to communicate with others, she failed to make any friend.

Children with hearing disabilities cannot enjoy a good time because of physical obstacles. They cannot hear the greetings of their relatives and friends, nor can they read the words in the books. The world is silent and lonely to them. There are about 32 million deaf children around the world. They cannot hear the wonderful voice or verbally express their ideas. The way they communicate with the world is full of challenges.

It is cruel that 90% of children with hearing disabilities have healthy parents, 78% of whom are unable to communicate with their children. For children who are severely or profoundly deaf, learning and reading can be an overwhelming challenge.

Languages are learned by listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Listening is a key part for language learning. When encountering a strange word, a normal child can understand its meaning with their family's explanation, and master it by speaking the word continuously. Children with hearing disabilities, however, can only learn languages through sign language. Without the help of professional sign language teachers, they cannot communicate with normal people.

To address this issue, Huawei developed StorySign in partnership with the European Union of the Deaf, the British Deaf Association, Penguin Books and Aardman Animations among others. With Huawei HiAI's open image recognition and optical character recognition (OCR) capabilities, the lovely Star translates a text into sign language when the mobile phone reads the text from a book.
