AWS IoT Device Management launches Wi-Fi Simple Setup for managed integrations

AWS IoT Device Management now offers Wi-Fi Simple Setup (WSS) for managed integrations, enabling developers to implement simplified Wi-Fi provisioning in Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. With WSS, developers can now integrate QR code scanning functionality that empowers end users to connect their Wi-Fi enabled devices using simple bar code scans, reducing device setup time and minimizing the need for technical support compared to manual configurations. The WSS capability operates through the managed integrations feature of AWS IoT Device Management. Managed integrations enables developers to control and manage devices across different vendors and connectivity protocols, while WSS helps streamline the device onboarding process. Once users securely store their Wi-Fi credentials in managed integrations, new device setup becomes nearly automatic. Users simply power on their new IoT device and scan its QR code using the solution provider’s mobile app. The new device discovers and connects to a hidden network broadcasted by the IoT hub, which securely transmits the user’s pre-stored Wi-Fi credentials to complete the onboarding process. This creates a near zero-touch experience for end users to securely and conveniently onboard Wi-Fi-connected devices into managed integrations-based IoT solutions. The managed integrations feature is available in Canada (Central) and Europe (Ireland) To learn more, refer to the developer guide and get started on the AWS IoT console.

Amazon Lex launches improved speech recognition models for English

Amazon Lex now offers a neural automatic speech recognition (ASR) model for English that delivers improved recognition accuracy for your voice bots. Trained on data from multiple English locales, the model excels at recognizing conversational speech patterns across diverse speaking styles, including non-native English speakers and regional accents. This reduces the need for end-customers to repeat themselves and improves self-service success rates. To enable this feature, select “Neural” as the speech recognition option in your bot’s locale settings. This feature is available in all AWS commercial regions where Amazon Connect and Lex operate. To learn more, visit the Amazon Lex documentation or explore the Amazon Connect website to learn how Amazon Connect and Amazon Lex deliver seamless end-customer self-service experiences.
