Voice Recognition Comes To Set-Top Boxes

Agile TV’s “plug-and-play” voice-recognition technology enables broadband operators to offer subscribers a cutting edge navigation solution – without complicated set-up or the need for training.Operators can integrate Agile’s voice recognition solution with Motorola’s broadly deployed DCT2000 digital set-top platform.

The Motorola and AgileTV solution enables consumers to control their digital set-top using just spoken commands. Subscribers can “talk” to their TV through a remote control with an integratedmicrophone, allowing for easy navigation of digital programming, the interactive program guide and on-demand services using phrases such as “Find The Sopranos”, “Scan Sitcoms” or “Find Movies withJulia Roberts.” The solution requires only a small receiver that attaches to the cable set-top to receive signals from the enhanced remote.

Comcast to trial Microsoft TV software

As previously disclosed at the National Cable & Telecommunications Association annual convention in June, the companies have agreed to trial the Microsoft TV Foundation Edition software, andtoday they said they will also conduct a limited trial of the Microsoft TV Interactive Program Guide (IPG) beginning this fall in Seattle using Motorola DCT2000 set-top boxes.

Microsoft TV Foundation is a new digital TV software platform designed to help network operators get more value from on-demand and other digital TV services. The platform will scale from today’s thin-client set-top boxes to future-generation devices. Microsoft TV IPG is an easy-to-use, feature-rich guide solution that enables network operators to offer a better consumer experience for navigating digital cable channels and services, including on-demand offerings.
