Abstract

A system, method, and wireless earpieces for implementing a virtual assistant. A request is received from a user to be implemented by wireless earpieces. A virtual assistant is executed on the wireless earpieces. An action is implemented to fulfill the request utilizing the virtual assistant. The wireless earpieces may be a set of wireless earpieces and the virtual assistant may be implemented independently by the wireless earpieces.

Claims (41)

1. A method for a virtual assistant on a pair of wireless earpieces, the method comprising:

executing the virtual assistant on a processor disposed within a first wireless earpiece of the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the virtual assistant has a listening mode;

activating the listening mode of the virtual assistant for collecting context to interpret a future request made to the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the context includes data including biometric data, location, and environmental data;

capturing at least a portion of the biometric data and the environmental data using one or more sensors of a second device while the virtual assistant is in the listening mode;

wirelessly communicating the biometric data and the environmental data from the second device to the first wireless earpiece;

activating the virtual assistant in response to receiving user input defining a request from a user to be implemented by the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the user input comprises voice input received at the pair of wireless earpieces;

analyzing the request by the virtual assistant executing on the processor of the first wireless earpiece by applying natural language processing to the voice input about the biometric data and the environmental data previously acquired from the one or more sensors of the second device when the virtual assistant was in the listening mode to determine an action to fulfill the request; and

implementing the action to fulfill the request utilizing the virtual assistant;

wherein the one or more sensors include at least one microphone.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the request is for biometric information captured by the one or more sensors of the second device.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the request is fulfilled by sending one or more commands to an associated wireless device.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the future request is a voice request.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the listening mode includes natural language processing of voice input from the user.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the virtual assistant reports sport metrics associated with a user of the pair of wireless earpieces.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising predicting the request based on the capturing of the data of the user and the environment of the user.

8. A method of utilizing a virtual assistant on a pair of wireless earpieces comprising:

executing the virtual assistant on a processor disposed within a first wireless earpiece of the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the virtual assistant has a listening mode;

activating the listening mode of the virtual assistant for collecting context to interpret a future request to the wireless earpieces, wherein the context includes user biometric data, location, and environmental data in accordance with user preferences received from the user;

capturing, at a plurality of sensors located on both the first wireless earpiece and a second wireless earpiece of the pair of wireless earpieces, the user biometric data and the environment data in accordance with the user preferences while the virtual assistant is in listening mode;

wirelessly communicating the user biometric data and the environment data from the second wireless earpiece to the first wireless earpiece;

providing verbally through the virtual assistant information to the user if the biometric and/or environmental data is indicative of a parameter within the user preferences for which the user desired to be notified;

receiving, from the user, a response to the information provided by the virtual assistant regarding the biometric and/or environmental data captured by the plurality of sensors while the virtual assistant was in listening mode;

activating the virtual assistant by a processor of the first wireless earpiece, in response to receiving the response from the user; and

implementing, by the virtual assistant while activated, an action associated with the response from the user;

wherein the plurality of sensors include at least a first microphone and a second microphone.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the plurality of sensors further includes an inertial sensor.

10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising adjusting the information in accordance with a habit associated with the user.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the environment of the user is a business environment and the information includes suggestions associated with the business environment.

12. A method for a virtual assistant on a pair of wireless earpieces, the method comprising:

executing the virtual assistant using a processor disposed within a first wireless earpiece of the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the virtual assistant has a listening mode;

activating the listening mode of the virtual assistant for collecting context to interpret a future request made to the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the context includes data including biometric data, location, and environmental data;

capturing at least a portion of the biometric data and the environmental data using one or more sensors of the pair of wireless earpieces while the virtual assistant is in the listening mode;

activating the virtual assistant in response to receiving user input defining a request from a user to be implemented by the pair of wireless earpieces, wherein the user input comprises voice input received at one or more microphones of the pair of wireless earpieces;

analyzing the request by the virtual assistant by applying natural language processing to the voice input about the biometric data and the environmental data previously acquired from the one or more sensors when the virtual assistant was in the listening mode to determine an action to fulfill the request; and

implementing the action to fulfill the request utilizing the virtual assistant.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the request is for biometric information captured by the one or more sensors of the second wireless earpiece.

14. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the request is fulfilled by sending one or more commands to an associated wireless device.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the future request is a voice request.

16. The method according to claim 15 , wherein the listening mode includes natural language processing of voice input from the user.

17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the virtual assistant reports sport metrics associated with a user of the pair of wireless earpieces.

18. The method of claim 12 , further comprising predicting the request based on the capturing of the data of the user and the environment of the user and the location of the user.
