Hybrid Dialog Speech Recognition for In-Vehicle Automated Interaction and In-Vehicle Interfaces Requiring Minimal Driver Processing
First Claim
1. A method for providing dynamic interactive voice recognition (IVR) over a wireless network, which comprises:
- establishing a connection with a telematics control unit via the wireless network;
configuring a directed dialog application of at least one of a remote data center and a vehicle to provide IVR for use with expected spoken user commands; and
using an open dialog application separate from the remote data center to provide IVR for use with unexpected spoken user commands.

Abstract
A system and method for implementing a server-based speech recognition system for multi-modal automated interaction in a vehicle includes receiving, by a vehicle driver, audio prompts by an on-board human-to-machine interface and a response with speech to complete tasks such as creating and sending text messages, web browsing, navigation, etc. This service-oriented architecture is utilized to call upon specialized speech recognizers in an adaptive fashion. The human-to-machine interface enables completion of a text input task while driving a vehicle in a way that minimizes the frequency of the driver'"'"'s visual and mechanical interactions with the interface, thereby eliminating unsafe distractions during driving conditions. After the initial prompting, the typing task is followed by a computerized verbalization of the text. Subsequent interface steps can be visual in nature, or involve only sound.

17. A method for minimizing task completion time using dynamic interactive voice recognition (IVR) over a wireless network, which comprises:
-
establishing a connection with a telematics control unit via the wireless network; configuring a directed dialog application of at least one of a remote data center and a vehicle to provide IVR for use with expected spoken user commands; receiving one of a plurality of expected spoken user commands; depending on the user command received, prompting a user for further spoken information in order to complete one or more actions required by the user command received; and completing the one or more actions upon receipt of the further spoken information. - View Dependent Claims (18)
