ART Announces New Cooperation With Motorola
ART’s Revolutionary Phonemic Recognition Software Ported to
Motorola’s World Leading Processors
Atlanta, USA, September 3, 2002. ART Advanced Recognition Technologies, Inc., global leaders in natural Human Interface technologies, today announced the porting of its revolutionary smARTspeak XG™ speech recognition solution to leading processors from Motorola, Inc., the world's #1 producer of embedded processors.
According to the announcement, ART will port its breakthrough speech recognition solution, the smARTspeak XG, to Motorola’s processors, including the 2/2.5G and 3G Innovative Convergence™ Platform and DragonBall™ applications processor families.
The first phonemic-based speech recognition software designed for mass-market wireless mobile device deployment, the smARTspeak XG provides speaker independent name dialing and other dynamic command functions. Thanks to its unique phonemic identification, the XG needs no training to perform accurate name dialing, no matter how command sentences are structured. Thus `Call John Smith in his office’ or `John Smith - office’ both provide the same accurate response.
"The introduction of phonemic-based recognition solution for mobile devices brings easy to use operation to the consumer just as Motorola solutions bring ease of use to the developer," said Ed Valdez director of marketing for Motorola's Wireless and Broadband Group. "By porting ART’s smARTspeak XG, we continue our commitment to leveraging best-in-class technologies to enable developers to deliver a wide variety of applications using Motorola’s total systems solutions.”
“ART is delighted with the reception Motorola has given the new smARTspeak XG, the latest in a decade of pioneering speech recognition solutions,“ said Eran Aharonson, ART’s President. “High in feature-rich potential and low in resource demands, we are confident the XG will get a similar welcome from all Motorola’s customers.“
About the smARTspeak XG
The unique smARTspeak XG is the first embedded speaker independent name dialing solution designed for wireless mobile devices. With dynamic recognition based on phoneme identification, the XG needs no training to provide instant name dialing functionality in response to the user’s verbal command. The result is that no more time needs to be spent recording names into a phone book, or browsing/searching for contacts – and no more the frustration of not remembering exactly how the original entry was phrased.
Being truly speaker independent, the innovative smARTspeak XG also enables devices to respond with equal accuracy to the commands of multiple users. With near infinite out of the box freedom, the XG is another step towards the ultimate user experience.
An evolution of ART’s all-in-one smARTspeak NG recognition bundle previously ported to Motorola’s microprocessors, the groundbreaking XG continues to offer the popular modular features of speaker dependent name dialing, speaker independent continuous digit dialing, speaker independent command & control and trainable continuous digit dialing for custom languages previously found on the smARTspeak NG platform.
