Abstract

Speech recognition and synthesis technology has advanced to the point where the use of voice input and output is now feasible for Web-based applications over the Internet. This article describes applications, standards, and architectures for a speech-enabled Web, or SpeechWeb. The ready availability of mobile devices, such as cell phones and PDAs with wireless access to the Internet but without a conventional desktop keyboard, mouse, and large display, make voice input and output very compelling. Voice input and output for small screen/ keyboard devices, and for hands-/eyes-free situations, is essential to enable the user’s interaction with the device and to make it more user friendly.
