Abstract
A system includes a processor configured to communicate with an application running on an extra-vehicular device. The processor is also configured to determine if new voice-recognition improvement data exists on the device. Further, the processor is configured to download any new improvement data determined to exist on the device. Additionally, the processor is configured to store the downloaded data in a voice-recognition profile associated with a driver and utilize the downloaded data in voice-recognition when the driver attempts voice input.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- communicate with an application running on an extra-vehicular device;
- determine if new voice-recognition improvement data exists on the device;
- download any new improvement data determined to exist on the device;
- store the downloaded data in a voice-recognition profile associated with a driver;
- and
- utilize the downloaded data to improve voice-recognition when the driver attempts voice input.
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- communicating with an application running on an extra-vehicular device;
- determining if new voice-recognition improvement data exists on the device;
- downloading any new improvement data determined to exist on the device;
- storing the downloaded data in a voice-recognition profile associated with a driver;
- and
- utilizing the downloaded data to improve voice-recognition when the driver attempts voice input.
A non-transitory storage medium, storing instructions, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a computer-implemented method comprising:
- communicating with an application running on an extra-vehicular device;
- determining if new voice-recognition improvement data exists on the device;
- downloading any new improvement data determined to exist on the device;
- storing the downloaded data in a voice-recognition profile associated with a driver;
- and
- utilizing the downloaded data to improve voice-recognition when the driver attempts voice input.
