    摘要: A purpose of the present invention is to provide a technique for easily performing accurate voice recognition. A voice operating system includes an on-vehicle device and a server device, in which the on-vehicle device includes a voice-input accepting unit, a vehicle-environment-information management unit, and an output control unit that transmits input information and vehicle-environment information to the server device, then outputs an execution task candidate received from the server device together with an estimated misrecognition factor, and transmits, when accepting permission, an instruction to execute the execution task candidate, and the server device includes a voice-data processing unit that converts the input information into a text, a task estimation unit that specifies the execution task candidate, reliability and the estimated misrecognition factor, a user-confirmation-necessity determination unit that transmits, when the reliability is less than a predetermined value, the estimated factor and the execution task candidate, and a processing unit.

    摘要: An in-vehicle terminal sends a speech input from a voice input unit as a voice signal to a relay server using a short-range wireless communication unit. The relay server converts the voice data received from the in-vehicle terminal into a string with a voice recognition unit, and makes an inquiry, via a communication unit, to an address database of a database server as to whether the string is a geographical condition. If the string converted by the voice recognition unit is a geographical condition based on the inquiry result of the communication unit, a POI data base is searched based on the geographical condition and a stored non-geographical condition, and the geographical condition is stored in a search history. If the string is a non-geographical condition, the POI database is searched based on the non-geographical condition and the geographical condition stored in the search history, and the non-geographical condition is stored in the search history.

    摘要: Highly precise detection of occurrence of an abnormality in an out-of-service area is enabled. A server 5 includes an area identification unit 24A identifying an out-of-service area in which communication with an information communication device 3 is disabled, a determination unit 24B determining whether the information communication device 3 enters the out-of-service area or not by using the position information of the information communication device 3, a computation unit 24C calculating an expected stay time in which the information communication device 3 stays in the out-of-service area, and a notification control unit 24D executing notification processing for notifying predetermined information to a notification destination if it is determined that the information communication device 3 enters the out-of-service area and when an elapsed time from a time when communication with the information communication device 3 is disabled exceeds the expected stay time.

    摘要: An in-vehicle terminal sends a spoken voice as a voice signal to a relay server, and the relay server includes a voice recognition unit which converts the received voice signal into a string, and a control unit which searches for information stored in a main database or a temporary storage database by using the string and sends a search result to the in-vehicle terminal, and, upon searching for information stored in the main database, stores the search result in the temporary storage database. Upon receiving a voice signal, when the search result is stored in the temporary storage database, the control unit searches for information stored in the temporary storage database by using the string converted from the received voice signal, and, when the search result is not stored in the temporary storage database, the control unit searches for information stored in the main database by using the string.

    摘要: The technique is implemented by a vehicular device for performing dialogs with the driver. This device has: a communication portion for communicating with a server; an output portion for outputting speech information to the driver; an input portion for inputting information based on speech uttered by the driver; and a controller for controlling the communication portion, the output portion, and the input portion. When trigger information for starting a dialog process in the vehicular device or in the server is generated, the controller receives information indicative of the type of a first dialog forming a starting point of the dialog process and information indicative of the type of a second dialog forming an ending point of the dialog process from the server and carries out the dialog process based on the received information. The second dialog is different in type from the first dialog.

    摘要: An input/output limitation information storage unit stores input/output limitation information in which limitation processing for limiting operation input to the application and display output from the application is prescribed by associating the limitation processing with the application. A determination unit acquires a vehicle state of a vehicle, and determines the limitation processing to be applied to the operation input to the application and the display output from the application on the basis of the application running on the terminal device, the vehicle state, and the input/output limitation information. The limitation unit performs the limitation processing determined by the determination unit for the operation input detected by the input control unit and transmitted to the communication control unit, and the display output received by the communication control unit and transmitted to the output control unit.
