Abstract:
A digital intercom system has a master station with hardware and software configured to allow duplex communication between a plurality of communication devices. The software is configured to run a plurality of settings for directing communication between the communication devices, the settings including a plurality of channels for each communication device. The channels each define parameters for how the communication devices within the system will communicate. An audio output device is linked to a corresponding communication device of the plurality of communication devices such that the audio output device is configured to receive and play the same audio as the corresponding communication device. The master station is configured to modify the settings based on input entered into a browser based program run on an input/output (I/O) device by a user.
Abstract:
A method for presenting information contained in messages in a terminal (MS). In the method, the message includes at least one component. The message is transmitted to a terminal (MS) in a system for transmitting multimedia messages. In the method, a presentation model (SMIL) is formed to contain information related to the presentation of each component attached in the message. The aforementioned presentation model (SMIL) is supplemented with a reference about the location of each component in the message, and the aforementioned presentation model (SMIL) is attached to the aforementioned message.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system for retrieving information from a network such as the Internet. A user creates a user-defined record in a database that identifies an information source, such as a web site, containing information of interest to the user. This record identifies the location of the information source and also contains a recognition grammar based upon a speech command assigned by the user. Upon receiving the speech command from the user that is described within the recognition grammar, a network interface system accesses the information source and retrieves the information requested by the user.
Abstract:
Clients connecting to a VoiceXML browser obtain a control channel. Using this channel, clients may initialize a new VoiceXML session or attach to an existing VoiceXML session. The client after obtaining a session may perform a range of actions including controlling and monitoring actions.
Abstract:
Web browser implementable instructions are generated from interactive voice instructions that are not natively interpreted by web browsers. Generating web browser implementable instructions in this manner allows for faster and cheaper deployment of voice, video, and/or data services by allowing legacy services based on interactive voice instructions to function seamlessly within an all data network.

Abstract:
A markup language for execution on a client device in a client/server system includes instructions to unify at least one of recognition-related events, GUI events and telephony events on non-display, voice input based client device and a multimodal based client for a web server interacting with each of the client devices. A recognition server for receiving data indicative of inputted data provided to a client device and an indication of a grammar to use for recognition is also provided.
Abstract:
A communication system (10) includes a remote personal communication device (14) that has an input device 68, 70, 72) and a data transceiver (62). The input device (68, 70, 72) receives a text article request command from a user. The data transceiver (62) transmits text article request signals in response to the text article request command and receives text article signals from an article source (12) in response to the text article request signals. A text-to-speech converter (46, 66) converts the text article signals into speech signals. An audio system (74) is coupled to the text-to-speech converter (46, 66) and audibly transmits the speech signals to the user.
Abstract:
A voice browser dialog enabler for multimodal dialog uses a multimodal markup document with fields have markup-based forms associated with each field and defining fragments. A voice browser driver resides on a communication device and provides the fragments and identifiers that identify the fragments. A voice browser implementation resides on a remote voice server and receives the fragments from the driver and downloads a plurality of speech grammars. Input speech is matched against those speech grammars associated with the corresponding identifiers received in a recognition request from the voice browser driver.
Abstract:
A server (410) communicates with a client (435) in a client-server architecture to carry out a dialogue with a user. The client comprises a browser (440) that supports a particular mark-up language, such as voiceXML. The server comprises a dialogue flow interpreter (DFI) (420) that reads a data file containing information representing different states of the dialogue with the user and that uses that information to generate for a given state of the dialogue objects (310) representing prompts to be played to the user, grammars of expected responses from the user, and other state information.
