INTERACTIVE VOICE UNIT FOR GIVING INSTRUCTION TO A WORKER

摘要

A system for implementing speech recognition in a directed resource application includes a local application server on which a speech recognition application may operate, remote units or clients that interact with the local application server and which may be used or worn by users or workers so that instructions and information can be sent from the local application server to the users or workers and progress reports or requests for information or instructions can be sent by the workers to the local application server. The workers may be locally mobile such that the workers may be moving while simultaneously communicating with the local application server. The workers and the system interact so that each worker conducts activities in one or more work states as directed by the local application server. The system may also include an enterprise system or server which monitors and/or controls operation of the environment in which the local application server is operating and which may provide information or instructions to the local application server to govern or influence operation of the speech recognition application running or otherwise operating on the local application server. Input from the workers to the remote units and, as a result, to the local application server is preferably done audibly to increase the efficiency of the workers and the words, phrases, sentences, or the utterances made by the workers are preferably chosen to increase the accuracy of the speech recognition or decoding and to make intuitive sense to the workers.
