Microsoft Recite for Windows Mobile: search for audio notes

27th February 2009

Microsoft has announced a “technological demo version” of the software product called Microsoft Recite.
This is a very useful application for Windows Mobile, allowing owners of cell phones to dictate to their devices short message and then easily find such notes by means of voice commands.
The mechanism of speech samples comparison is the basis of the product and it makes Microsoft Recite different from traditional systems of speech recognition. This mechanism does not convert the speech into a text but only analyzes available samples, one of them being a note and the other is a voice request. Then it just and finds matches in these records. According to the manufacturer, the program allows storing more than thousands of voice messages.
Well, this can be considered as a conventional utility in your cell-phone to remind you of vital events and dates.
