📝 Short Description ​

This diagram shows a fictional Smart Speaker system. The use cases include the download and install process aswell as voice-guided command sequences and data exchanges with third parties.

🔤 Abbreviations ​

  • CMD: Command

📖 Extensive Description ​

The Device Owner can first download the mobile app for using the smart Speaker. After the initial setup, the user will login to the app and connect the Speaker to the local network (the Router). The user can also log in to the Music Store. The user activates the speakers’ microphone and sends voice_requests which are processes by the Provider, returning the corresponding command back to the Speaker. The Speaker then invokes the Music Store API provided capabilities to stream the desired content. Finally, the Provider may send certain aggregated statistics about their history of clienteles’ requests to Third-party Partners.
