Handsfree device with countinuous keyword recognition
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, by a handsfree device that is paired with a separate, mobile communications device, first audio data;
determining, by a speech recognizer implemented on the handsfree device, that the first audio data includes one or more particular keywords;
after determining that the first audio data includes one or more particular keywords, initiating, by the handsfree device, establishment of an active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device; and
transmitting stored second audio data received after establishment of an active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device and stored in a buffer on the handsfree device over the active communication channel to the mobile communication device.

Abstract
A handsfree device, which is coupled to a data processing device, may be operable to monitor at least one audio stream for occurrence of at least one keyword. Upon recognition of the at least one keyword, the handsfree device may establish a first connection between the handsfree device and the data processing device for launching a voice interface in the data processing device. The handsfree device may send audio data received after the recognition of the at least one keyword to the data processing device, via the first connection for responding to the audio data via the voice interface. During a keyword configuration operation, the handsfree device may send at least one inputted keyword to the data processing device for recording. The handsfree device may receive, via a second connection, the recorded at least one keyword from the data processing device for keyword configuration of the handsfree device.

9. A computer-readable storage device storing software comprising instructions executable by one or more computers which, upon such execution, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving, by a handsfree device that is paired with a separate, mobile communications device, first audio data; determining, by a speech recognizer implemented on the handsfree device, that the first audio data includes one or more particular keywords; after determining that the first audio data includes one or more particular keywords, initiating, by the handsfree device, establishment of an active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device; after initiating establishment of an active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device, receiving, by the handsfree device, second audio data; storing the second audio data in a buffer on the handsfree device; determining that the active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device has been established; and after determining that the active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device has been established, transmitting the stored second audio data over the active communication channel to the mobile communication device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A system comprising:
-
one or more computers; and a computer-readable medium tangibly embodying a computer program product comprising instructions to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising; receiving, by a handsfree device that is paired with a separate, mobile communications device, first audio data; determining, by a speech recognizer implemented on the handsfree device, that the first audio data includes one or more particular keywords; after determining that the first audio data includes one or more particular keywords, initiating, by the handsfree device, establishment of an active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device; after initiating establishment of an active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device, receiving, by the handsfree device, second audio data; storing the second audio data in a buffer on the handsfree device; determining that the active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device has been established; and after determining that the active communication channel between the handsfree device and the mobile communication device has been established, transmitting the stored second audio data over the active communication channel to the mobile communication device. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
