Ticket: Select ASR Engine and Target Hardware

Ticket Information

ID: TICKET-009
Title: Select ASR Engine and Target Hardware
Type: Research
Priority: High
Status: Backlog
Track: Voice I/O
Milestone: Milestone 1 - Survey & Architecture
Created: 2024-01-XX

Description

Decide on ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) engine and deployment:

Evaluate options: faster-whisper, Whisper.cpp, etc.
Decide deployment: faster-whisper on 4080, CPU-only on small box, or shared
Consider model size vs latency trade-offs
Document hardware requirements

Acceptance Criteria

ASR engine selected (faster-whisper recommended)
Target hardware decided (4080 vs CPU box)
Model size selected (medium vs small)
Latency requirements documented
Decision recorded in architecture docs

Technical Details

Considerations:

faster-whisper on 4080: Lower latency, higher quality
CPU-only on small box: Lower cost, higher latency
Shared deployment: Resource contention considerations
Model sizes: tiny/small/medium/base for latency/quality trade-off

Dependencies

TICKET-004 (architecture) - helpful context

docs/ASR_EVALUATION.md (to be created)
ARCHITECTURE.md

Notes

Can run in parallel with TTS and LLM work. Needs wake-word event flow defined for when to start/stop capture.
