Systems and methods for off-board voice-automated vehicle navigation
First Claim
1. A method of providing navigational information to a vehicle operator comprising:
- processing destination information spoken by a vehicle operator with an on-board processing system on a vehicle;
transmitting the processed voice information via a wireless link to a remote data center;
analyzing the processed voice information with a voice recognition system at the remote data center to recognize components of the destination information spoken by the vehicle operator;
confirming the accuracy of the recognition of the components of the destination information via interactive voice exchanges between the vehicle operator and the remote data center;
determining a destination from confirmed components of the destination information;
generating route information to the destination at the remove data center; and
transmitting the route information to the on-board processing system from the remote data center via the wireless link.

Abstract
A method of providing navigational information to a vehicle operator includes processing destination information spoken by a vehicle operator with an on-board processing system on a vehicle. The processed voice information is transmitted via a wireless link to a remote data center and analyzed with a voice recognition system at the remote data center to recognize components of the destination information spoken by the vehicle operator. The accuracy of the recognition of the components of the destination information is confirmed via interactive voice exchanges between the vehicle operator and the remote data center. A destination is determined from confirmed components of the destination information, route information to the destination is generated at the remove data center, and the route information transmitted to the on-board processing system from the remote data center via the wireless link.

10. A system for providing navigational information to a vehicle operator comprising:
-
an on-board system disposed on a vehicle for processing and transmitting via a wireless link spoken requests from a vehicle operator for navigational information to a selected destination; and
a data center for processing the spoken requests for navigational information received via the wireless link and operable to;
perform automated voice recognition processing on the spoken requests for navigational information to recognize destination components of the spoken requests;
confirm the recognized destination components through interactive speech exchanges with the vehicle operator via the wireless link and the on-board system; and
download navigational information to the desired destination for transmission to the on-board system derived from the confirmed destination components. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
