Systems and methods for off-board voice-automated vehicle navigation
First Claim
1. A method of providing navigational information, comprising:
- processing destination information spoken by a user of a mobile processing system;
transmitting the processed voice information via a wireless link to a remote data center;
analyzing the processed voice information with a computerized voice recognition system at the remote data center to recognize components of the destination information spoken by the mobile system user;
computer-generating at the remote data center a list of hypothetical recognized components of the destination information listed by confidence levels as computer-calculated for each component of the destination information analyzed by the voice recognition system;
computer-generating a display of the computer-generated list of hypothetical recognized components and confidence levels at the remote data center for selective checking by a human data center operator;
selecting a set of hypothetical components based on the confidence levels in the list;
confirming the accuracy of the selected set of hypothetical recognized components of the destination information via computer-generated interactive exchanges between the mobile system user and the remote data center; and
determining a destination from confirmed components of the destination information.

Abstract
A method of providing navigational information comprises processing destination information spoken by a user of a mobile processing system. The processed voice information is transmitted to a remote data center. The processed voice information is analyzed at the data center to recognize components of the destination information. The center generates a list of hypothetical recognized components of the destination by confidence levels as calculated for each component of the information analyzed. The hypothetical recognized component list is displayed with confidence levels at the data center for selective checking by a human data center operator. A set of hypothetical components is selected based on confidence levels in the list. The accuracy of the selected set of hypothetical recognized components of the destination information is confirmed though interactive voice exchanges between the mobile system user and the remote data center. A destination is determined from confirmed components of the destination information.

9. A system for providing navigational information comprising:
-
a mobile system for processing and transmitting via a wireless link spoken requests from a mobile system user for navigational information to a selected destination; and a data center processing the spoken requests for navigational information received via the wireless link and operates to; perform automated voice recognition processing on the spoken requests for navigational information to recognize destination components of the spoken requests; confirm the recognized destination components through interactive speech exchanges with the mobile system user via the wireless link and the mobile system; selectively allow human data center operator intervention to assist in identifying the selected recognized destination components having a recognition confidence below a selected threshold value; and download the desired destination for transmission to the mobile system derived from the confirmed destination components. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
