System, apparatus, and methods for creating alternate-mode applications
First Claim
1. A computer-based method for automatically creating a non-voice-mode only interactive application from a voice-mode only interactive application, the method comprising:
- providing a voice-mode only interactive application having a set of voice-mode elements, the set of voice-mode elements defining the voice-mode only interactive application for accomplishing a predetermined user-directed task;
representing the voice-mode only interactive application as a call flow using a graphical call flow builder, each voice-mode element of the set of voice-mode elements including at least one among a function, statement, prompt, input field, and presentation field that performs a step of the task using a voice-mode output or based upon a voice-mode user supplied input;
automatically generating a non-voice-mode element corresponding to each voice-mode element, and wherein the non-voice-mode element comprises at least one among a function, statement, prompt, input field, and presentation field that performs a corresponding step of the task using a non-voice-mode output or based upon a non-voice-mode user-supplied input; and
constructing a non-voice-mode only interactive application using the graphical call flow builder, wherein the non-voice-mode only interactive application comprises a set of non-voice-mode elements consisting of the generated non-voice-mode element for each voice-mode element, wherein the non-voice-mode only interactive application constructed is capable of accomplishing the same predetermined user-directed task.

Abstract
A system, apparatus, and method for creating alternate-mode interactive applications is provided. A system for creating an alternate-mode interactive application includes a selection module for selecting a voice-mode element from a set of voice-mode elements defining a voice-mode interactive application for accomplishing a predetermined user-directed task The system also includes a generation module for generating an alternate-mode element corresponding to the selected voice-mode element, the alternate-mode element having a modality different than the voice-mode element. The system further includes a construction module for constructing an alternate-mode interactive application based upon the generated alternate-mode element.
