🛠️ RealtimeVAD – trading false positives for 110ms earlier end-of-speech
Summary
RealtimeVAD is a voice activity detection solution that trades false positives for a faster end-of-speech signal. It combines an adaptive energy detector with a speculative generation pipeline to reduce latency by about 100 to 110 milliseconds.
Why it’s interesting
It optimizes voice assistant responsiveness by intentionally accepting false positives to achieve significantly earlier end-of-speech detection.
