  • Integrated microphone/pushbutton housing for voice activated cellular phone
    Patent number: 5584052
    Abstract: A voice controlled vehicle accessory system is responsive to voice commands and/or manual commands wherein the manual commands are entered via a single pushbutton 16 having multiple functions depending upon the instantaneous state of a system controller 10. A single housing houses the microphone for the voice recognition unit and the single pushbutton adjacent to each other in a common location in the vehicle, thereby reducing manufacturing costs and increasing user convenience since the two separate input functions are intuitively placed in a common location.
