Overview

The verification module is responsible for verifying the user’s audio against the voice used for enrollment, which was explained in Sonde Edge Passive SDK Architecture. Additionally, before starting with the steps mentioned here, please go through Android Sonde Edge Passive SDK Integration.

The following steps guide your app development and will provide detailed information for the verification of the user’s voice and describe collecting the audio sample and generating the score for Mental Fitness.

Import the following classes in your Activity/Fragment

Code Block

import com.sondeservices.common.RecordingDataType
import com.sondeservices.passive.models.Score
import com.sondeservices.passive.verification.IVerification
import com.sondeservices.passive.verification.RecordingData
import com.sondeservices.passive.verification.VerificationCallback
import com.sondeservices.passive.verification.VerificationHandler

Before starting the verification, add the next check to make sure that the RECORD_AUDIO permission is enabled in your app :
Declare the following code.

private val REQUEST_CODE_RECORD_AUDIO = 11111

Then add the following check,

Code Block

if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(
        requireContext(),
        android.Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO
    ) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
) {
    val permissions = arrayOf(android.Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO)
    ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
        requireActivity(),
        permissions,
        REQUEST_CODE_RECORD_AUDIO
    )
}

Also, verify that the app user grants record audio permission—the recording functionality will not function without permission. To do this, override the onRequestPermissionsResult method in your app and check the permission result.

Code Block

override fun onRequestPermissionsResult(
  requestCode: Int,
  permissions: Array<String>,
  grantResults: IntArray
) {
  super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults)

  if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_RECORD_AUDIO && grantResults.isNotEmpty()
      && grantResults[0] != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
    throw RuntimeException("Record Audio permission is required to start recording.")
  }
}

Declare IVerification in the declaration section of Activity/Fragment,

private var verificationHandler: IVerification? = null

Initialize verificationHandler and call the startVerification() function to start verification.

Code Block

verificationHandler = VerificationHandler.createVerification(requireContext())

verificationHandler?.startVerification(object : VerificationCallback {
            override fun onError(throwable: Throwable) {
                Log.d(TAG, "onError==>${throwable.message}")
            }

            override fun onScore(score: Score) {
                Log.d(TAG, "Score==>$score")
                //Get callback when score is ready.
            }

            override fun onSegmentFormed(recordingData: RecordingData) {
                //Get callback when 3 sec segment formed and you will get
                //recordingData as datatype in which you will be having following member
                //isUserVerified:Boolean, 3 sec segment is verified or not.
                //noOfSecond:Int, How much second user's verified voice is there.
                //recordingDataType:RecordingDataType, you will get enum as NO_VOICE,ACTIVE_VOICE,INSUFFICIENT_VOICE,RECORDING.
                //segmentNumber:Int, which segment is this from 10 segment of 3 sec each.
            }

            override fun onVerificationStopped() {
                //Get call back when recording stop.
            }
            
        })

Typecast the score to VFFinalScore to get the other voice feature's scores.

Code Block
val vfFinalScore = score as VFFinalScore

Display the score to the user

The score value generated in the above step varies between 0-100. Once you get the score, display it to the user. You should always show the user the interpretation message on the score screen. For some applications, scores may be uploaded and not shown to the users. However, the scores can be uploaded for an individual user or in bulk for further analysis through API function calls.

Refer to Vocal Biomarkers - Health Checks for the interpretation message.
