Abstract:
A system and method capable of responding to an audible traffic alert by visually depicting the identified neighboring aircraft traffic on the onboard display is presented. The system and method employ speech recognition in order to minimize the visual and manual cognitive workload associated with responding to a traffic alert. The system and method maximize the pilot's hands-on control of the host aircraft.
Abstract:
A system and method for recognizing speech on board an aircraft that compensates for different regional dialects over an area comprised of at least first and second distinct geographical regions, comprises analyzing speech in the first distinct geographical region using speech data characteristics representative of speech in the first distinct geographical region, detecting a change in position from the first distinct geographical region to the second geographical region, and analyzing speech in the second distinct geographical region using speech data characteristics representative of speech in the second distinct geographical region upon detecting that the aircraft has transitioned from the first distinct geographical region to the second distinct geographical region.
