WOBURN, Mass.-Speech-recognition company VoiceSignal Technologies launched its next-generation speech solution on the Samsung MM-A700 wireless phone available through Sprint PCS.
The software offers a one-command voice interface for dialing and launching applications on the phone. Users are able to dial numbers by using commands such as “Call John Smith at home,” or access features using commands such as “Go to camera,” said the company.
“Consumers often can tell you exactly what feature they want to use on their wireless phone, but sometimes locating that feature in the phone’s menu takes some practice,” said Peter Skarzynski, senior vice president of Samsung’s wireless terminals division. “By incorporating this innovative voice-recognition solution from VoiceSignal into the new MM-A700, Samsung is simplifying the process, allowing consumers to activate and use many of the applications on this new handset with simple voice commands.”
