ART's Name-Dialing Solution Enabled on QUALCOMM Chipsets; smARTspeak XG Phonemic Recognition Software for Mobile Devices to Be Optimized to QUALCOMM's MSM Chipsets.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 3, 2002 ART Advanced Recognition Technologies, Inc. (ART), global leader in natural Human Interface technologies, today announced an agreement with QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq:QCOM QCOM Qualcomm, Inc. (stock symbol) ), pioneer and world leader of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) A method for transmitting simultaneous signals over a shared portion of the spectrum. The foremost application of CDMA is the digital cellular phone technology from QUALCOMM that operates in the 800 MHz band and 1.9 GHz PCS band. ) digital wireless technology, for ART to port its revolutionary smARTspeak XG(TM) software to QUALCOMM's family of CDMA Mobile Station Modem (MSM MSM - Micronetics Standard MUMPS (TM)) chipsets. ART's speaker-independent smARTspeak XG is an embedded, phoneme-based name dialing solution designed for mass-market wireless mobile devices. QUALCOMM's MSM products support key multimode, multi-band third-generation (3G) wireless technologies. "We are delighted to be porting smARTspeak XG's comprehensive range of voice functionality to QUALCOMM's MSM family of chipsets," said Eran Aharonson, ART's president. This will make an optimized version of ART's user friendly and robust voice recognition technology easily available to handset designers using QUALCOMM's MSM chipsets. "QUALCOMM is dedicated to providing its customers with advanced and highly integrated technologies," said Don Schrock, president of QUALCOMM CDMA Technologies. "ART's embedded voice-control software will augment the solutions our MSM family of chipsets offers to the wireless industry." ART's latest technological innovation, the smARTspeak XG is the first embedded, speaker-independent name-dialing solution to be introduced for mass-market deployment. Based on phonemic pho·ne·mic adj. 1. Of or relating to phonemes. 2. Of or relating to phonemics. 3.

Thus both 'Call John Smith in his office' and 'John Smith - office' provide the same accurate response. Evolved from the successful smARTspeak NG platform, the XG offers the same modular features of speaker-dependent name dialing, speaker-independent continuous digit dialing, speaker-independent command & control, and trainable continuous digit dialing for custom languages.
