Abstract

A portable device using speech recognition for searching festivals includes a speech receiving module, a speech recognition module, a storage module and a display module. The speech receiving module receives a speech signal. The speech recognition module is electrically connected to the speech receiving module. The speech recognition module recognizes the speech signal, and converts the speech signal to a digital signal. The storage module is electrically connected to the speech recognition module, and the speech recognition module searches corresponding festival data in the storage module according to the digital signal. The display module is electrically connected to the speech recognition module and shows the data of the festival.

Claims

1. A portable device using speech recognition for searching festivals, the portable device comprising:

a speech receiving module for receiving a speech signal;

a speech recognition module electrically connected to the speech receiving module, the speech recognition module recognizing the speech signal and converting the speech signal to a digital signal;

a storage module electrically connected to the speech recognition module, wherein the storage module comprises at least a piece of festival data, and the speech recognition module gets the corresponding festival data according to the digital signal; and

a display module electrically connected to the speech recognition module to display the festival data.

2. The portable device according to claim 1 further comprising:

an input module electrically connected to the storage module, the input module being capable of being used to input user-defined festival data to make the user-defined festival data stored in the storage module.

3. The portable device according to claim 1, wherein the storage module stores a scheduling database and the festival data is recorded in the scheduling database.

4. The portable device according to claim 1 further comprising:

a speech output module for outputting the festival data in a speech mode.

5. The portable device according to claim 4, wherein the speech output module is a loudspeaker.

6. The portable device according to claim 1, wherein the speech receiving module is a microphone.

7. The portable device according to claim 1, wherein the speech recognition module is a microprocessor control unit (MCU).

8. The portable device according to claim 1, wherein the storage module is a flash memory, a random access memory (RAM) or a hard disk.

9. The portable device according to claim 1, wherein the display module is a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel.

10. A method using speech recognition for searching festivals and applied to a scheduling database which records at least a piece of festival data, the method comprising the following steps:

receiving a speech signal;

recognizing the speech signal and converting the speech signal to a digital signal; and

getting a piece of corresponding festival data according to the digital signal; and

outputting the festival data.

11. The method according to claim 10 further comprising:

inputting a user-defined festival data to make the user-defined festival data recorded in the scheduling database.

12. The method according to claim 10 further comprising:

determining whether the digital signal is correct.

13. The method according to claim 12, wherein if the digital signal is incorrect, the reason for the digital signal to be incorrect is determined and outputted.

14. The method according to claim 10, wherein the festival data is outputted in a word or speech mode.
