Abstract: A method for implementing a voice controlled notification system uses a dedicated PC device that receives verbal commands and outputs reminders of upcoming tasks and events. Additionally, the method requires the use of a remote server that stores information about a user, and performs the background processes required to satisfy the user's verbal commands. The method continuously tracks the current date-and-time so that the user is presented with an appropriate reminder at the appropriate time. As a result, the user is kept abreast of upcoming tasks and events. The method for implementing a voice controlled notification system enables the user to interact with the PC device by issuing verbal commands. Accordingly, the method can interpret the user's speech and provide the user with information that is relevant to the issued verbal command.

Abstract: A device which operates as an intelligent hands free voice activated Reminder device on its own or as part of any device, or when connected to any network in the home or work, which incorporates a reminder and control system that announces and/or displays personalized scheduled messages and/or voice reminders of any length, either pre-recorded in a personal voice or a voice of a pre-recorded person, or a computer generated voice based on reminders and/or tasks at specific time or date or a combination of time, day, date or year. These reminders can be confirmed by the end users and therefore acknowledged by a second person, whether they are in the same premises of the end user, or anywhere else in the world. The user can ask the device to repeat a reminder for any time, day, date or year.
