Sensory, a leader in embedded speech technology, showcased its new large vocabulary recognition system in the Texas Instruments booth at the CTIA show. This large vocabulary recogniser can recognise up to thousands of names with very high accuracy, even in the presence of noise, according to the company.
Sensory uses a speaker independent recognition technology requiring no training. The recogniser can learn the vocabulary by simply reading text files stored in Microsoft Outlook or other contact software. This is particularly useful for name dialling applications, where users already have a very large database of names in their contacts, and do not want to have to train each name individually. The Sensory recogniser does all the work, says the company. Additionally, general control of the handset device can be accomplished by voice. For example, calling up dates in the calendar, accessing websites or other information, can now be done without having to scroll through menus. This can be particularly useful in hands-busy, eyes busy environments like while driving to avoid distraction.
Sensory chose to rollout and showcase its Fluent large vocabulary engine on the Motorola MPx200 with Windows Mobile software, which uses TI's high-performance, low-power OMAP processors.
