Hi,

I have noticed that in Android Lollipop (API Level 21) there's a 
VoiceInteractionService class 
(http://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/voice/VoiceInteractionService.html)
 
which apparently allows an app to setup Hotword Detectors which fire a 
callback when a certain hotword is recognized by the VR module. Although 
the class is available in the SDK I don't see any guide or detailed 
documentation on how to use it. Digging in the AOSP code I found out that 
there's a system service for VR but this service is not available for 
arbitrary apps, just system or platform signed apps. I guess this service 
is used by Google Services for servicing Google Now's voice activation 
(a.k.a "OK Google"). If so, I can't understand why this service is 
available in the SDK.

Can someone from Google provide some information about this? Is there a way 
to add Voice Interaction the apps now or in the future? Also, if someone 
knows about an alternative Voice Interaction package that may be used I 
would be glad to hear about it.
