1. A headset computer device comprising:
- a microdisplay driven by a processor;
a microphone coupled to provide user-voiced input to the processor; and
a voice location module, executed by the processor, configured to(i) extract one or more location-related phrases from an ongoing user utterance that was produced during ordinary conversation, conveyed through the user-voiced input;
(ii) analyze the one or more location-related phrases to identify at least one location-related reference word; and
(iii) establish a location of the device based on the at least one location-related reference word.

Abstract
A headset computer device provides user voice indication of location of the device. The user may implicitly or explicitly present by voice input his and hence the HSC device location. A voice driven location module is coupled to the voice recognition engine, a map database and GPS of the HSC device. Based on user voiced indications of 3D space location, the voice driven location module determines device location and resets 3D space location accordingly.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable medium for recognizing speech, the non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer software instructions stored thereon, the computer software instructions, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computer system to:
-
(i) extract one or more location-related phrases form an ongoing user utterance that was produced during ordinary conversation; (ii) analyze the one or more location related phrases to identify at least one location-related reference word; (i) recognize the location-related reference word as a description of an object disposed within a region; (ii) identify the object within a map of the region; (iii) extract locational coordinates associated with the object from the map of the region; and (iv) establish a location of a user who produced the user utterance based on the locational coordinates.
