10. VOICE COMMANDS
The voice command of the intercom allows you to perform certain
operations using only the voice. You can control the intercom completely
hands-free using the recognition vocal. You can set another language on the
UNITE Interphone app. If you set a language that does not support voice
commands, voice commands will only work in English. It's possible see the
list of voice commands of another language from the Interphone UNITE app.
Voice command performance may vary depending on environmental
conditions, such as the speed of riding, the type of helmet and
environmental noises.
To improve performance, minimize wind noise on the microphone using a
foam microphone cover and closing the helmet visor. It is recommended
to keep a normal tone of voice even in conditions of strong ambient noise,
the command recognition has lower performance if commands come say
screaming loud, if the microphone is too close or too far from the mouth.
