Voice Recognition makes an advance
There's a nice brief by Doug Mohney the VON site that raises attention to somethin we'll see grow in the future -
Voice Recognition Technologies Heat Up
L3 Communications (www.L-3Com.com) and RSA (www.rsa.com) have released voice recognition solutions over the past two weeks.L3 Communications was demonstrating its "WhosThere" voice recognition technology at the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) conference in Washington D.C. The software technology needs as little as 10 seconds of unformatted speech to recognize a voice print and can be scaled up from a simple laptop application to a large distributed server farm depending on the application; it can also be embedded into DSPs or FPGAs for real-time applications. L-3 is best known for its federal government work in the defense and national security areas.
Both voice and facial recognition technologies have been making great advances in recent months. As we watch the unification of video and voice, variations on biometrics like facial and voice recognition look to be a natural fit for user authentication and increased security. L3 and RSA are leading the way.
