This breakthrough will open the door to many new wireless opportunites, such as multi-modal access to information that can be located anywhere on the Internet, even the user’s own computer. That means that a user can use their voice and/or text input to make menu selections, navigate and retrieve information.
Auvo’s technology doesn’t require a voice channel interface. Instead, Auvo’s handset software instantly converts speech into packets of data that can be sent over the Internet to a host server or directly to other users with lightning speed. This allows for simultaneous use of data and speech/audio over a present-day, data-capable network such as the GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) technology being used commercially in the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, as well as in the Middle East and the Peoples Republic of China.
In August, Auvo Technologies and Vodafone’s AirTel Movil, S.A. a leading Spanish wireless service provider, will conduct the world’s first live commercial network trial of the multi-modal platform.
