Amazon Echo
Amazon
Echo is a hands-free speaker you control with your voice. Echo connects to
Alexa Voice Service to play music, answer questions, provide information, news,
sports scores, weather, and more - instantly. All you have to do is ask.
Alexa, the brain behind Amazon Echo, is built
in the cloud, so it is always getting smarter. The more you use Echo, the more
Alexa adapts to your speech patterns and vocabulary. Using Alexa is as simple
as asking a question – just ask and Alexa will respond instantly.
Amazon Echo has a 2.5” downward-firing woofer and 0.6” tweeter powered
by Dolby to deliver crisp vocals and dynamic bass throughout the room. Just ask
Alexa to play music from Amazon Prime Music, Saavn or TuneIn. With Amazon Prime
Music, you can search by your favourite artist, song, genre, album, mood,
decade, or let Alexa pick the music for you.
Use Amazon Echo to switch on the lights before getting out of bed or dim
the lights from the couch to watch a movie – all without lifting a finger or…
even raising your voice. Echo works with devices such as smart lights and plugs
from brands including Philips, SYSKA LED, Oakter, TP-Link and more.
Amazon Echo has an array of seven microphones that use beam-forming
technology and enhanced noise cancellation. This allows Echo to hear you from
across the room, even in noisy environments, or while playing music. When you
want to use Echo, simply say the wake word “Alexa” and it responds instantly.
Alexa has thousands of skills with more added
regularly. Skills add even more capabilities like ordering food from Zomato,
requesting a ride from Ola, booking a carpenter from Urbanclap and more.
