Kyocera cellphone features Nuance technology

Nuance Communications Inc. today announced that some of its speech-recognition solutions are available in the Tempo E2000, a new cellphone from Kyocera Wireless Corp.

The 2GB music-enabled handset also features video on demand as well as a 1.3 megapixel camera, said Nuance, a Burlington-based provider of speech-recognition solutions.
According to Nuance, its speech-recognition technology enables speaker-independent name and digit dialing, meaning a user can dial by pushing a single button and speaking a name from the phone's contact directory or saying the digits of the phone number; the technology also supports a number of additional command and control functions including launching applications and navigating menus.
