CUPERTINO, Calif., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- RoadComm, Inc., a leading solutions provider of wireless Telematics systems, today announced its SpeechCommand(TM) advanced speech recognition engine has been certified eXpressDSP(TM) compliant by Texas Instruments (TI), which ensures rapid development, ease of integration and compatibility of algorithms for flexible, voice-enabled embedded applications. SpeechCommand(TM), a directive based speech recognition toolkit, enables developers to easily create applications that customers can control with their voice, instead of with keyboards.
"For customers dedicated to providing embedded products ranging from phone and home appliances to automotive devices and corporate network appliances, SpeechCommand(TM) provides a comprehensive solution to quickly address the needs of customers developing voice-enabled embedded applications," said James Lin, president, RoadComm. "We are pleased to work closely with Texas Instruments to bring this technology into full compliance with the TMS320(TM) DSP Algorithm Standard to ensure a smooth and rapid integration process to the customer's platform."
The eXpressDSP compliance program ensures algorithms are written according to the TMS320(TM) DSP Algorithm Standard, a set of coding conventions and application programming interfaces (APIs). This allows algorithm creators to "wrap" the code for system-ready use allowing for interoperability between algorithms. Instead of re-engineering algorithms for each different system, algorithms are written once and easily reused by integrators. Customers who use eXpressDSP compliant algorithms gain accelerated time to market, improved ease of use through a wide selection of value added tools in a unified environment, minimal algorithm configuration time and an additional level of comfort knowing that the product has passed compliance testing for interoperability.
"As a member of TI's third party program, RoadComm offers customers time- to-market advantages, lower development costs and accelerated development efforts for developers who choose to build innovative products and applications around TI DSPs," said Brian Fortman, telematics worldwide marketing manager, TI. "RoadComm's SpeechCommand(TM) software provides customers with high-quality voice-driven interface for designers of home, corporate and automotive devices. We look forward to working with RoadComm in the future development of these new technologies."
The SpeechCommand(TM) engine requires a very small footprint that provides speaker independent/dependent, adaptation, continuous voice recognition and speaker verification, which are features that previously could only be found in a sophisticated server class speech recognizer. RoadComm also provides comprehensive system solutions that integrates SpeechCommand(TM) with Text to Speech (TTS), system control, Web-based applications, vehicle diagnostic modules, wireless protocols and hardware with easy to use application interfaces (APIs) to reduce development costs and accelerate time to market.
