Abstract

A method, apparatus, and electronic device for voice navigation are disclosed. A voice input mechanism 310 may receive a verbal input from a user to a voice user interface program invisible to the user. A processor 104 may identify in a graphical user interface (GUI) a set of GUI items. The processor 104 may convert the set of GUI items to a set of voice searchable indices 400. The processor 104 may correlate a matching GUI item of the set of GUI items to a phonemic representation of the verbal input.

Description

1. FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a method and system for voice navigation. The present invention further relates to voice navigation as relating to graphical user interface items.2. INTRODUCTION[0002]Voice recognition software has historically performed less than ideally. Most software programs that perform voice recognition based navigation have previously done so by constructing a voice dialogue application statically for each view of a graphical user interface (GUI). To do this, for each view of a GUI, a dialogue application has to anticipate every grammar and vocabulary choice of the user. This process may significantly impede browsing and navigation.[0003]Web content providers may currently use VoiceXML® for voice navigation or browsing by voice enabling web pages. VoiceXML® uses a static voice navigation system, which does not allow for much flexibility. VoiceXML® coverage may not extend to the entire webpage.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0004]A metho...
