Management of voice commands for devices in a cloud computing environment
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- transmitting in a session, by a first computational device comprising a wearable computing device to a second computational device via Bluetooth, a voice command from a user, wherein the first computational device does not have adequate processing power to convert the voice command to a text command, and wherein the second computational device converts the voice command to the text command, and then transmits the text command to a cloud for being processed by a third computational device in the cloud;
receiving in the session, by the first computational device via the second computational device, a data response for the user from the third computational device in the cloud;
transmitting in the session, by the first computational device, another voice command to the cloud via Internet, without the another voice command being transmitted via the second computational device, wherein the voice command is converted to another text command in the cloud via voice recognition services executing in the third computational device, and wherein one or more of services provided by a fourth computational device in the cloud are used to generate another data response by executing the another text command; and
receiving in the session, by the first computational device, from the cloud, the another data response, without the another data response being transmitted through the second computational device, wherein the first computational device does not have adequate processing power to convert the another voice command to a text command, and wherein the second and the third computational devices have adequate processing power to convert voice commands to text commands.

Abstract
Provided is a lightweight computational device that is configured to be in communication with a cloud both directly and via a smart computational device. The lightweight computational device receives a voice command from a user, wherein the lightweight computational device does not have adequate processing power to convert the voice command to a text command. The voice command is transmitted from the lightweight computational device to a smart computational device, wherein the smart computational device uses voice recognition to convert the voice command to a text command in the smart computational device, and transmits the text command for being processed by that cloud that provides at least one of voice recognition service and other services. The lightweight computational device receives a data response for the user from the cloud, via the smart computational device, based on the other services provided by the cloud.
