METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CREATING A VOICE RECOGNITION DATABASE FOR A MOBILE DEVICE USING IMAGE PROCESSING AND OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION
First Claim
1. A method for remotely operating a mobile device from a vehicle head-unit using voice recognition, the method comprising:
- receiving a representation of a user interface screen of the mobile device from the mobile device;
scanning the representation of the user interface screen to find a representation of an input mechanism, wherein the input mechanism is used to provide a command to the mobile device;
scanning the representation of the input mechanisms to determine a voice recognition command; and
associating the voice recognition command with the input mechanism in a voice recognition database, wherein when a user utters the voice recognition command the head unit transmits a signal corresponding to the input mechanism to the mobile device.

Abstract
A method and system for controlling a mobile device from a head unit using voice control is disclosed. The head unit receives a graphical representation of a current user interface screen of the mobile device. The head unit than scans the graphical representation of the current user interface screen to determine the locations of potential input mechanisms. The potential input mechanisms are scanned using optical character recognition and voice commands are determined for the input mechanisms. The determined voice commands and their respective locations on the user interface screens are stored in a voice recognition database, which is queried with uttered voice commands during voice recognition.

9. A head unit of a vehicle configured to remotely operate a mobile device using voice recognition, the head-unit comprising:
-
a communication module that receives a representation of a user interface screen of the mobile device from the mobile device; an image scanning module that scans the representation of the user interface screen to find a representation of an input mechanism on the representation of the user interface screen, wherein the input mechanism is used to provide a command to the mobile device; an character recognition module that scans the representation of the input mechanism found by the image scanning module to determine a voice recognition command, wherein the voice recognition command is determined based on at least one character or symbol identified by the character recognition module; and a mobile device voice recognition database that stores the voice recognition command corresponding to the input mechanism found in the user interface screen, wherein when a user utters the voice recognition command the head unit transmits a signal corresponding to the input mechanism to the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
