  • Patent number: 8479107
    Abstract: A method including causing, at least in part, display of selectable objects on a graphical user interface, where each of the selectable objects corresponds to data or an application accessible via the graphical user interface. The method further includes causing, at least in part, display of the selectable objects in motion travelling across the graphical user interface based on a category of the selectable object or context dependent data, and allowing user selection and manipulation of the selectable objects displayed on the graphical user interface.

  • Patent number: 7382770
    Abstract: A communication architecture for delivery of grammar and speech related information such as text-to-speech (TTS) data to a speech recognition server operating with a wireless telecommunication system for use with automatic speech recognition and interactive voice-based applications. In the invention, a mobile client retrieves a Web page containing multi-modal content hosted on a origin server via WAP gateway. The content may include a grammar file and/or TTS strings embedded in the content or reference URL(s) pointing to their storage locations. The client then sends the grammar and/or TTS strings to a speech recognition server via a wireless packet streaming protocol channel. When URL(s) are received by the client and sent to the SRS, the grammar file and/or TTS strings are obtained via a high speed HTTP connection. The speech processing results and the synthesized speech are returned to the client over the established wireless UDP connection.

  • Patent number: 6732078
    Abstract: In a method for controlling a data processor (2) with a group of audio commands, information is presented on a display device (16) of the data processor, and at least one control field, to which a predetermined function is assigned is formed on the display device (16). In the method, one audio command from said group of audio commands is assigned to said control field, and an audio command assigned to said control field is presented on the display device, wherein when the user gives an audio command assigned to the control field, the recognition of the audio command as well as a function corresponding to the recognized audio command is conducted.
