A speech dialogue system (SDS) is provided for controlling an electronic device through speech control. A method for controlling an electronic device with a speech dialogue system is provided, using a speech dialogue system with a speech recognition unit. The speech recognition unit includes a control command determining unit, which is activated by a keyword, for determining a control command to control the electronic device. The method comprises the steps of receiving an acoustic input, spoken by a user of the SDS, containing keyword information and control command information; determining a keyword corresponding to the keyword information; activating the command determining unit, and determining a control command corresponding to the control command information. A speech dialogue system for use in a vehicle is also provided, comprising a speech recognition unit including a control command determining unit which is activated by a keyword spoken by a user of the SDS. The speech recognition unit is configured to activate the command determining unit for determining a control command upon receipt of an acoustic input comprising both keyword information and control command information. A computer program product is also provided, including one or more computer readable media having computer executable instructions for performing the method for controlling an electronic device via speech control.
