PAL provides Microsoft Cortana test service that fully conforms to the requirements of the “Speech Platform – Input Device Recommendations”.

 Microphone (array) ion and its geometry

 Mechanical design around the microphone and speaker

 Proper speech algorithm implementation and tuning

 Proper audio pipeline declaration to Windows

 Proper registry key settings in driver/APO/FW after testing
