When it comes to intelligence, many TVs were only limited to application installation, interconnected operation with cell phones, etc. Although they also support voice input, the user experience is very poor, with a low voice recognition rate, only a fixed syntax input, fewer application scenarios, and a necessity to operate the remote control in close proximity, etc., which can only be regarded as the embryo of an AI TV, a product of the AI 1.0 era. Can do "semantic analysis", is the advanced AI 2.0 era of artificial intelligence TV, can understand the user's semantics, to achieve the analysis, recommendation function. Changhong's latest AI TV CHiQ Q5K series with far-field voice and voiceprint recognition technology can not only answer, but also understand what the user needs through "artificial intelligence + big data + deep learning", so as to realize that you can throw away the cell phone, the remote control, and directly interact with the user in a natural way, so that the AI TV is more humanized, and it has entered the AI 3.0 era. It has entered the AI 3.0 era.

Changhong AI TV Q5K voice test
The biggest selling point of Changhong AI TV Q5K is the AI voice part, after three generations of iterative upgrading of the product, the Q5K further improves the human-computer interaction technology and the machine's ability to deep learning, creating more service scenes. At the same time, the addition of far-field voice, voiceprint recognition, super fuzzy film search, and voice-activated operation also makes the machine interaction experience simpler and more natural.

No need for traditional voice remotes
Far-field voice 5 meters away from accurate recognition
Voice interaction brings convenience to human beings without much ado, but the traditional voice interaction needs to be carried out through manual operation, such as holding down the remote control to send out the voice command, which is still limited in terms of convenience and speed. This is where the advantages of far-field voice recognition, which can truly realize "freeing your hands", come to the fore. With the built-in microphone array, you don't need to touch any devices, and you can activate the far-field voice recognition function by speaking specific "wake-up words" to control the TV within a certain range by pure voice. The first thing you need to do is to use the same voice size to test the Q5K at 1 meter, 2 meters, 3 meters, 4 meters, and 5 meters. The test statement is: "Changhong Xiaobai, turn on the TV", and the TV will be turned on. It was found that within 5 meters, the Q5K's voice recognition was very accurate, and when I tried a longer distance, it could be recognized just as accurately with a slight increase in volume, which is difficult to achieve on other TVs.
Voice Recognition Automatic User Identification
With the help of voice recognition technology, the TV will provide personalized visual and content services according to the recognized roles (e.g., male, female, child). Changhong Q5K supports multi-person voiceprint registration and role classification, and will distinguish who is currently using the TV by the different voices of each person speaking, and learn and analyze the user's habits of using the TV, so as to realize the accurate recommendation of content.
The actual effect is that a boy and a girl say "I want to watch a movie" to Changhong Q5K, and Q5K will present different visual effects and recommended movies based on their identities. For women, the interface is soft pink, the recommended movies are mainly romance, men will see dark blue visual and some action, science fiction-based movie results. If you are a child, you will get some animated movie recommendations.
Semantic Understanding Basic Skills Test
The mainstream smart TVs on the market today basically have voice recognition capabilities, and the difficulty of voice interaction lies in semantic understanding. The ability to understand the user's intentions is a major test of artificial intelligence technology. So we specifically selected a few categories of test items, each category using a variety of commands, to see if the TV can be accurately executed.
In the most basic function test, we tested some of the functions that users use most often in their daily life, including finding movies, checking the weather, checking people's names, and so on, and all of them can be realized accurately. During the playback process, for mute, settings, return, volume increase / decrease these operating instructions, Changhong Q5K TV can also be completed through voice control. Advanced such as "too bright", "too dark", Changhong Q5K can recognize the user's intention to "adjust the brightness". In the process of searching for movies, say "I want to watch Sun Li's husband's movie" or "I want to watch Chen Yanxi's husband's TV series" to the TV, Changhong Q5K can accurately find Deng Chao's movie and Chen Xiao's TV series.
Fuzzy search movies Remember the wrong title is not afraid
The voice as the carrier of the interaction mode, there will inevitably be a speech error when talking about the existence of the problem, sometimes the user may be a moment of fast-mouthed mispronunciation, and sometimes it is easy to say the wrong word out-of-the-way words. In the case of the user's objective instructions are wrong or the machine itself recognizes the error, whether the TV set has the ability to self-correct the error, for the user to find the correct audio and video content, is this test want to test a competitive point.
We deliberately and confusingly referred to "The Brothers Sleeping on Your Upper Bunk" as "The Brothers Sleeping on Your Lower Bunk," and didn't expect it to actually play the desired content. It's safe to say that the Changhong Q5K automatically corrects for typos, harmonies, and subtractions to find the correct content that the user's target is referring to.
Summary:
Changhong AI TV Q5K can be said to be the most natural, accurate and efficient AI interaction in the TV industry, voice input is no longer a gimmick, which allows you to really leave the remote control behind.
