Microsoft tests new Voice Clarity feature for Windows 11: What it means for users

9 months ago 19

Microsoft

has rolled out a new Canary test build for beta testers on Windows. The latest build adds the company’s proprietary

Voice Clarity

feature. Earlier, this feature was exclusive to Surface devices. Now, the company is reportedly planning to bring the feature for all Windows machines, including those using

ARM CPUs

What is Voice Clarity

In a blog post, Microsoft explains that the feature uses “low complexity

models” to filter out

background noise

, echo, and reverberation in real-time.

When Voice Clarity is enabled, this feature can improve the meeting experience on

Zoom

or Teams.

How will it help users

In situations where the speaker is away from the microphone while giving a presentation or if their voice is carrying a lot of reverb or echo, this feature can come in handy. This feature can also remove feedback generated through another participant’s microphone (if they’re nearby) while you’re someone is talking

Microsoft also explains that PC games will also be able to use this feature for voice chat. The feature will use its AI to suppress unwanted background noise even during gaming sessions.
Apart from this feature, the latest

Canary build

also brings immediate access to photos and screenshots from connected Android devices. The latest update also adds a new Windows setup procedure that the company says has “a much cleaner and more modern design.” Microsoft has also used this build to add the 80Gbps update to USB4.

Microsoft's AI spree

The company transformed its Edge browser into an ‘AI browser’, integrated AI in the Microsoft Paint app, brought Copilot to

Windows 11

and other tools and services. Microsoft is also planning to bring a version of AI into Notepad. The company has reportedly started testing a new ChatGPT-4 powered feature called Cocreator in Notepad. Rumours suggest that Microsoft is currently working on the feature and may arrive for Windows in the upcoming days.
