METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OPERATING A VEHICULAR ELECTRONIC SYSTEM WITH VOICE COMMAND CAPABILITY
First Claim
1. A method for operating an avionics system comprising:
- receiving a first voice command indicative of a request to perform a first type of avionics system function;
performing the first type of avionics system function in response to the receiving of the first voice command;
receiving a second voice command indicative of a request to perform a second type of avionics system function, the second type of avionics system function having a hazard level that is higher than that of the first type of avionics system function; and
performing the second type of avionics system function in response to the receiving of the second voice command only after a condition is detected that is indicative of a confirmation of the request to perform the second type of avionics function.

Abstract
Methods and systems for operating an avionics system with voice command capability are provided. A first voice command is received. A first type of avionics system function is performed in response to the receiving of the first voice command. A second voice command is received. A second type of avionics system function that has a hazard level higher than that of the first type of avionics system function is performed in response to the receiving of the second voice command only after a condition is detected that is indicative of a confirmation of the request to perform the second type of avionics function. The avionics system may also have the capability to test whether or not the voice command feature is functioning properly.

8. An avionics system comprising:
-
at least one microphone configured to detect voice commands and generate voice command signals representative thereof; and a processing system in operable communication with the microphone, the processing system being configured to; receive a first voice command signal from the at least one microphone, the first voice command signal being indicative of a request to perform a first type of avionics system function; perform the first type of avionics system function in response to said receiving the first voice command signal; receive a second voice command signal from the at least one microphone, the second voice command signal being indicative of a request to perform a second type of avionics system function, the second type of avionics system function having a hazard level that is higher than that of the first type of avionics system function; and perform the second type of avionics system function in response to said receiving the second voice command only after a condition is detected that is indicative of a confirmation of the request to perform the second type of avionics function. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. An avionics system comprising:
-
a speaker configured to generate an artificial voice command; a microphone configured to detect the artificial voice command and generate an artificial voice command signal representative thereof; and a processing system in operable communication with the speaker and the microphone, the processing system being configured to; provide the speaker with a test voice command signal such that the speaker generates the artificial voice command; receive the artificial voice command signal from the microphone; and compare the test voice command signal with the artificial voice command signal. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
