Turn-detection is also known as end pointing – because it refers to detecting when the user has finished their turn. It is extremely hard to do accurately as Speech to Text models do not have visual or other cues like humans do in conversation. That makes high-quality turn detection incredibly important for conversational AI - poor turn detection results in very long awkward pauses and high latency in the voice agent’s conversation.
