Voice Recognition for Mobile Websites

sweet

I hope they use this technology to provide a transcription of voicemail messages, similar to PhoneTag.

How old is this? They are running one of the first versions of firmware for the iPhone. Look at the old calculator app. Also Safari doesn't have the + icon in the middle. Also...is that a terminal app on there? AT&T does Jailbreaking!! I think thats the biggest story here. Wow.

So this app...just launches a customized version of Safari...or is a plugin for Safari? Wonder how they did that. Maybe Apple gave them special tools for all of this. Why is this just now coming out??

Things are different now. They've changed things forever! There's no going back!!!

Where are the other drugs going!?

I... I don't know!! I never knew!! I swear to god!

SWEAR TO ME!

We're tonight's entertainment. Where is Harvey Dent?

Maybe you'd prefer a magic trick. Watch me make this pencil disappear.

Nice demo.
I wonder why they haven't set it to include words like 'TAB' and 'FIND' so you don't have to press ANY buttons. Nice demo, but not very functional if you are driving. If they fully integrate it, it could recognize voice commands, then take you to Google Maps, and then give you 'Turn By Turn'. Now THAT would be an awesome application.

The swiping looks a little buggy to me....slower than normal and jittery. This is pretty neat, but would be better if you didn't have to tap the screen. That would allow you to find information without looking at the screen so much which of course would be helpful while driving.

Why wouldn't I just type the information in, I mean if i have to take the iPhone out of my pocket, then go and tap the field were I want to "voice type"? It would just be faster to type it manually, IMO. Plus I really doubt that it will as stable and accurate as it is in that video.

My guess is this guy created the program and therefore it is most accurate with his voice, or it took 10 takes for it the program to get all 4 entries right the first time.

VERY cool if it ever worked but voice recognition is still in the dark ages, apple needs to build its own so it works as well as their other creations. Forget touch control, just tell your phone what to do.

"Iphone call David"
"Iphone play Beatles"
"Iphone look up stock price apple"
"Iphone lookup macrumors.com"

Iphone v5 will likely do this lol

I've seem various people on this forum getting all upset over the lack of "voice dialing", but so far in every voice-recognition software I've ever used, it takes a long time to process and at BEST is wrong 25% of the time. "Call Bart." "*Calling .. Roger...*". Huh? In a quiet room, it never worked well.

Here's an extreme example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyLqUf4cdwc

I have 10 fingers, and i can use them accurately. Speaking to a computer is still years away.

I believe Apple is working on this. They could have added it just for phone calls like other phones, but think instead when they implement it they'll go all the way like in your examples above; and that's what the hold up is. Doing it right the first time and not just shoving it out the door because customers are use to it.
