Effecting Functions On A Multimodal Telephony Device
First Claim
1. A method for effecting functions on a multimodal telephony device, the method implemented with the multimodal application operating on a multimodal telephony device supporting multiple modes of interaction including a voice mode and one or more non-voice modes, the multimodal application operatively coupled to an automated speech recognition engine, the method comprising:
- receiving the speech of a telephone call;
identifying with the automated speech recognition engine action keywords in the speech of the telephone call;
selecting a function of the multimodal telephony device in dependence upon the action keywords;
identifying parameters for the function of the multimodal telephony device; and
executing the function of the multimodal telephony device using the identified parameters.
