Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
The voice recognition application
can usually understand direct
commands of the application
and task. An example of a command would
be,
“Phone.” The system may
answer with a prompt of, “Say Call
followed by the number or contact
name.” The direct command for this
task would be, “Call .”
If the phone number has been
saved as a name or place, the direct
command would be, “Call and place>.”
Directed Dialog
A directed dialog is an interaction
between a person speaking the
command and the system prompting
for specific information necessary to
complete the task. Many times the
system may repeat what the person
has stated as a command. This is
done as a confirmation to make
sure the command is understood.
