Remote voice control system

TLDR
In this article, a portable communication device (10) is controlled by voice recognition circuitry (20) remote from the portable communication devices, which includes apparatus for producing and transmitting a parametric representation of voice commands.
Abstract
A portable communication device (10) is controlled by voice recognition circuitry (20) remote from the portable communication device. The portable communication device includes apparatus for producing and transmitting a parametric representation of voice commands. The remote circuitry (which could possibly be a base station, a mobile repeater, or simply a dedicated box, separate from the portable) produces control signals, responsive to the parametric representation of voice commands, for controlling the portable communication device.

Intelligent Automated Assistant

TL;DR: In this article, an intelligent automated assistant system engages with the user in an integrated, conversational manner using natural language dialog, and invokes external services when appropriate to obtain information or perform various actions.
Patent

Using context information to facilitate processing of commands in a virtual assistant

TL;DR: In this article, a virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or gestural input from a user, which helps to clarify the user's intent and reduce the number of candidate interpretations of user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input.

Mobile vehicular repeater system which provides up-link acknowledgement signal to portable transceiver at end of transceiver transmission

TL;DR: In this paper, a mobile vehicular repeater detects the termination of a received transmission from a portable transceiver to be repeated and, in response to such detection, activates the uplink radio transmitter so as to send an acknowledgement signal to the message originating transceiver station signifying the probable successful conclusion of a repeating operation.
Patent

Remote language translating device

TL;DR: In this article, a method for simultaneous translation of conversation between a user of the system of this invention and another party where the user has a transmitter/receiver and can broadcast language to be translated to a remote translation computer and the translation of such language to another language is done by such computer and broadcasts the translation back to the user so that the user and the other party can hear what the other has said in his own language.
