AITALK lets you talk to your iPod

Computex 2009 has displayed a lot of new technologies recently, and one of them is one by Aibelive (pronounced I believe?) called AITALK. This AITALK allows the user to interact with their iPod with nothing but speech.

This is perfect for those times when you are listening to your iPod while driving or jogging. Instead of awkwardly fumbling with the controls for changing tracks while your eyes should be on the road, you can just say: “skip track” and it will go on to the next song.

Aibelive’s Press Release has also stated that a user can do more than just control an iPod with vocal commands, but he or she can search for a song, artist, or album. I don’t have much information on how it does that. I would imagine it is something like: “Find (song name)” or something like that.

So how does this work? It looks like you have to plug-in something to your iPod in order to make it vocally accessible, but that really is no surprise. You didn’t expect something wireless, did you?

Considering that we live in an age where we need to be hands-free, the AITALK is definitely a technology whose time has come. In fact, Apple should take a hint and put these vocal controls on their new models of iPods.

[...] Published by Maria Mihale, on Jun 14 2009, in the categories: Gadgets Whenever an event is said to take place, people are very anxious to be part of the certain event (physically or by reading articles, news or reviews written by those who have information about it), because they have the chance to see what’s going on in the world with the technology and stuff. Computex 2009 is a similar event, where companies presented the most innovative technologies they were able to come up with, one of them being AITALK from Aibelieve. Aitalk does a magnificent job when it comes to allowing the user to interact with the iPod he/she owns. To be more precise, you can give Aitalk voice commands and control it the way you like. You can search for the song you love most, for the artist or, why not, the album an the device will find it right away. “With the Aibelieve’s intelligent user interface technology, users are able to COMMUNICATE with their iPod by speech when the Aitalk in place. Aitalk makes it easier for iPod users to listen to the music while driving, doing exercise or when their hands are engaging with other activities, in addition, it will help to serve certain handicapped people better!” The features of the Aitalk include voice control, the Speaker Independent technology, up to 90% accuracy, multi-language and music preview when the device is in the Search mode. Unfortunately, the information concerning the price and availability of the Aitalk are not known right know. (Source: Coolest-Gadgets) [...]
