Abstract: An apparatus for searching for geographic information using interactive voice recognition includes: a receiver configured to receive a voice signal; a voice recognition unit configured to recognize the voice signal; a result analysis processing unit configured to search for geographic information on the basis of the recognized voice signal, and analyze a search result of the geographic information; and a question generating unit configured to generate a question in response to the result of determination. A method for searching for geographic information using interactive voice recognition includes: receiving a voice signal, and recognizing the voice signal; searching for geographic information on the basis of the recognized voice signal; analyzing a search result of the geographic information; and generating a question in response to the result of determination.

Abstract: A speech recognition device for a vehicle may include: an input device receiving a command; a storage device storing a first wake-up command generated to perform terminal speech recognition with respect to the received command, and a second wake-up command generated to perform server speech recognition with respect to the received command; a control device determining whether at least one of the first wake-up command and the second wake-up command is detected from the received command, performing the terminal speech recognition if the first wake-up command is detected from the received command, and performing the server speech recognition if the second wake-up command is detected from the received command; and an output device outputting at least one of a result of the terminal speech recognition and a result of the server speech recognition.

Abstract: An automatic dialing system includes a telephone directory database configured to store first terminal information which includes a first telephone directory and first identification information and second terminal information which includes a second telephone directory and second identification information. An instruction receiving unit is configured to receive a dialing instruction. A telephone directory search unit is configured to search for a telephone directory. A mobile device connection unit is configured to connect the second mobile device corresponding to the automatic dialing system, when the found telephone directory corresponds with the second telephone directory. A dialing control unit is configured to dial a phone number corresponding to the received instruction through the second mobile device, when the found telephone directory corresponds with the second telephone directory.

Abstract: An outgoing call control method for an in-vehicle head unit equipped with a voice recognition function includes connecting Bluetooth communication with a user device when vehicle is powered on. Whether or not an existing voice recognition database is present is checked. Phone book information is downloaded from the user device through the connected Bluetooth communication. Voice recognition for an outgoing call is performed using the existing voice recognition database during download of the phone book information if the existing voice recognition database is present.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling an outgoing call during download of phone book information are provided. The method includes setting, by a controller, a communication channel with a user device when a vehicle is powered on. Additionally, the method includes transmitting, by the controller, a predetermined phone book download request signal to the user device via the set communication channel. The method may further include downloading, by the controller, new phone book information from the user device via the set communication channel. Furthermore, the method includes completing an outgoing call service request from a user using existing phone book information while new phone book information is downloaded.
