Abstract

A method for invoking a user-intended Internet of Things (IoT) device amongst a number of IoT devices is disclosed. The method includes extracting by the number of IoT devices, a number of voice parameters from a voice wakeup command for waking up the device. The method includes sharing by the number of IoT devices, the number of voice parameters amongst the number of IoT devices. The method includes comparing the number of voice parameters with a number of pre-stored voice parameters in the number of IoT devices. The method includes determining, a user-intended IoT device amongst the number of IoT devices based on the voice wakeup command and at least one of a similarity between the plurality of pre-stored voice parameters and the plurality of voice parameters and a previously invoked IoT device associated with a previous voice wakeup command. The method includes invoking the user-intended IoT device selected amongst the number of IoT devices.
