Patent number: 10997973Abstract: Disclosed is a voice recognition apparatus connected via a network and sharing a voice recognition function. The voice recognition apparatus includes: a microphone configured to receive a voice signal from a user's speech; a communicator configured to communicate with at least one external voice recognition apparatus; a voice recognizer configured to determine a wake-up word involved in the voice signal; and a controller configured to transmit the voice signal to the external voice recognition apparatus corresponding to the determined wake-up word. Thus, it is possible to overcome a limited voice recognition distance caused by a physical characteristic of a microphone and expand a spatial range where voice recognition is possible, thereby providing various voice recognition services to a user in more places.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2016Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Myoung-soon Choi, Jong-hyuk Lee
