Abstract:
Disclosed are system and method of remotely controlling the home appliance by employing the voice/character recognition technique. The appliance detects a connection relationship between the appliance and the mobile terminal and dynamically transmits the control code and a module for transmission. If the appliance control command is inputted through the voice control command input screen or the handwriting control command input screen, after the inputted command is interpreted through the voice/character recognition technique and is transformed to the control code of the appliance to be sent to the home appliance, the control code is sent to the home appliance to remotely control it. The function thereof may be extended to the environment capable of implementing the bi-directional communication with the appliance by receiving the control code from the appliance, while overcoming the limitation of the conventional terminal having a fixed function. In addition, since it is easy to add or delete the control function, a plurality of appliances can be effectively controlled by use of one terminal.
Abstract:
A remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter includes voice activated control capability to allow the transmitter to receive key word inputs to control operation of multiple systems and devices. The use of voice recognition and key word commands allows the RKE transmitter to be operated nullhands-free.null In addition, the transmitter can be arranged to control a plurality of different devices on a vehicle, such as door locks, trunk, and horn, as well as other devices such as a garage door opener without requiring a larger housing to accommodate additional dedicated control buttons and circuitry.
Abstract:
A remotely programmable infusion system. The remotely programmable infusion system comprises a memory for storing a programmable protocol and a remote communication port for sending a voice signal to a remote touch-tone transceiver and for receiving a remote programming signal from the remote touch-tone transceiver. The remotely programmable infusion system also comprises a voice storage unit for storing the voice signal. The remotely programmable infusion system further comprises a processor, coupled to the remote communication port, to the voice storage unit, and to the memory, for accessing the voice signal from the voice storage unit and the programmable protocol from the memory, and for processing the programmable protocol in response to receiving the remote programming signal.
Abstract:
A stove having a plurality of burners (1) which is under the control of a computer that has one or more cooking control programs to control the activation, time of operation and heat output of a selected burner. The user of the stove, a utensil and the stove have components of a transmitter/receiver system that permits burner actuation through the computer only when the user and utensil are authorized.The stove includes subsystems that supply information to the computer: a flame sensing system (C); a time regulating system "timer" (41); a weight checking system of the food to be cooked; a nearness sensing and identifying system of authorized users and utensils to operate the stove; a sound and/or visual alarm system; a voice synthesizer system associated with the other systems. The stove also includes an auxiliary battery back-up supply (8) a pre-heating system (H) for the oven (4); a temperature programmer (42) for the oven; an internal temperature measuring system (TR') for the oven; a variable programming system (46) of time.times.temperature; an automatic activating system (53) for a stove exhaust fan; and a bar code scanning system, for automatically programming the variable parameters of time and temperature.
Abstract:
A command device which comprises a plurality of interactive command sources enabling any number of heterogeneous systems to be accessed, each command source being reconfigurable and having commands of a first type which cause the configuration of this source to change, and commands of a second type, specific to each of the configurations, and each system transmitting at the end of execution of the command information relating to the status of the system, on the one hand, perceptibly on the command sources situated in the configuration corresponding to the command that has just been executed, and, on the other hand, blindly in the memory spaces allocated to the command sources situated in other configurations. The invention applies notably to instrumentation in aerodyne cockpits.
Abstract:
A sewing machine aurally informs an operator of abnormal conditions which accidentally have taken, or are taking, place by means of a vocal indication. One group of speech data corresponding to an accidentally occurring abnormal condition is selected from among plural groups of speech data according to a detection signal from a plurality of abnormal condition detectors disposed in the machine. A voice signal corresponding to the selected group of speech data is generated in relation to operation of a manual device e.g. a button such as a switch, for the start of sewing. The operator can hear the warning voice due to this vocal indication simultaneously with the operation of the manual button for the start, whereby he/she is prevented from starting of the machine while the abnormal condition exists.
Abstract:
A multiple pattern sewing machine with a trouble warning device. The sewing machine is provided with a pattern displaying device for indicating a selected stitch pattern from among a plurality of stitch patterns. The trouble warning device comprises a trouble detector disposed where detection of a trouble is desired in the sewing machine and a device for interrupting the supply of the indication signal to the pattern displaying device, in response to the trouble detecting signal from the trouble detector. Disappearing of the stitch pattern indication per se warns an operator of trouble occurrence.
Abstract:
This relates to systems and processes for using a virtual assistant to control electronic devices. In one example process, a user can speak an input in natural language form to a user device to control one or more electronic devices. The user device can transmit the user speech to a server to be converted into a textual representation. The server can identify the one or more electronic devices and appropriate commands to be performed by the one or more electronic devices based on the textual representation. The identified one or more devices and commands to be performed can be transmitted back to the user device, which can forward the commands to the appropriate one or more electronic devices for execution. In response to receiving the commands, the one or more electronic devices can perform the commands and transmit their current states to the user device.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for managing an industrial production line, including at least one processing station and one monitoring station that is connected to the at least one processing station. The method includes: sending a radiofrequency signal from the monitoring station to a communication peripheral; then—sending a corresponding sound signal using the communication peripheral. The sound signal is dedicated to an operator to which the peripheral is assigned. The transmitted information is specific to the communication peripheral. Also disclosed is a corresponding device and facility.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes an audio reception circuit, a processing circuit and at least one movable component. The audio reception circuit receives an audio data. The processing circuit performs an audio feature analysis on the audio data to obtain audio feature data, and determines a corresponding action event according to audio feature data to generate an action control signal corresponding to the action event. The movable component performs the action event in response to the action control signal.
