Abstract
A user interface device includes a sound input unit which acquires an inputted sound, a sound recognition unit which acquires a result of predetermined recognition processing on the acquired sound, a speech generation unit which generates a speech corresponding to the result of the recognition processing, and a speech output unit which outputs the speech generated by the speech generation unit.
Claims17
A user interface device comprising:
- a sound collecting device that collects sound and outputs a sound signal representative of the collected sound;
- a processor that performs a plurality of tasks, including:
- a sound recognition task that performs a predetermined recognition processing on the sound signal to determine whether the sound signal includes a predetermined sound;
- and
- a speech generation task that generates a speech including a command word upon the sound recognition task determining that the sound signal includes the predetermined sound;
- and
- a communication interface that outputs the speech generated by the speech generation task.
