SALT LAKE CITY, Aug 23, 2001 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Fonix(R) Corporation
(OTC Bulletin Board: FONX), a leading provider of natural-user interface
technology and voice solutions for wireless and mobile devics, Internet and
telephony systems, and vehicle telematics, will exhibit its dynamic speech
solutions at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) Conference, Fall 2001, August
27-30, at the San Jose Convention Center, San Jose, California.
Because technologies constantly evolve, IDF, Fall 2001, is the ideal forum for
successful developers to remain up-to-date as new technologies unfold. As a
leading and refreshing resource for developers, IDF will address voice portals,
handheld clients, peer-to-peer developments, and wireless solutions. Fonix
technology reaches each of those areas. Fonix will showcase solutions
that
incorporate its highly accurate Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and
its
award-winning Text-To-Speech (TTS).
Fonix will also display its technologies that support the Intel StrongARM
processor and the new Intel XScale microarchitecture. In a
recently-released
case study, Fonix and Intel found that by implementing the Intel(R)
Integrated
Performance Primitives (IPP) for the Intel(R) StrongARM SA-1110
Microprocessor,
Fonix reduced the amount of CPU cycles required for its base ASR engine
by 14%,
while still retaining greater than 99% accuracy rates when dialing
numbers in
noisy environments, with full noise reduction capabilities. In other words,
Fonix and Intel maintained the high accuracy of Fonix ASR and utilized
the CPU
cycles more effectively.
Fonix representatives will be showing demonstrations and will be
available for
questions in the Wireless Applications Area.
