SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE SIMULTANEOUS SPEECH RECOGNIZERS

摘要

A speech recognition system interprets both spoken system commands as well as application commands. Users may speak commands to an open microphone of a computing device that may be interpreted by at least two speech recognizers operating simultaneously. The first speech recognizer interprets operating system commands and the second speech recognizer interprets application commands. The system commands may include at least opening and closing an application and the application commands may include at least a game command or navigation within a menu. A reserve word may be used to identify whether the command is for the operation system or application. A user's cadence may also indicate whether the speech is a global command or application command. A speech recognizer may include a natural language software component located in a remote computing device, such as in the so-called cloud.

主权项

1. A method to operate a computing device, the method comprising:
receiving, by a first speech recognizer, information that represents a global command from a microphone; receiving, by a second speech recognizer, information that represents an application command from the microphone, the second speech recognizer operates simultaneously with the first speech recognizer; and performing, by the computing device, a computing operation in response to one of the information that represents the global command and the information that represents the application command.
