ATR announces ATR™ mPath Shared Resource Speech Recognition System

(11/16/02) ATR announces the ATR™ m-Path system to be available in hardware and software by Mar. 2003.

The mPath solution from ATR represents a major leap forward in the creation of shared resource speech recognition. Simply put, mPath will be a way in which 2 people may share a speech resource and will revolutionize speech.

Currently, speech recognition works human to server. using ATR(tm) mPath, you will be able to dial a server, connect to resources then allow your friend to share them with you. Using our patent pending 4 state technology, mPath allows you to create a "privacy sphere" as well, allowing the server to speak to you alone (similiar to a mute button / except nly you will hear it.)


"mPath will make extensive use of endpointing technology and in addition to allowing users to share resources, it will strengthen the connection to the server itself by anywhere from 7 to 10%" , Turner Rentz, CEO, ATR, Inc. " mPath will have obvious applications in society, including the medical profession. We want technology to be a tool for humans, not the other way around".

The mPath will be availble for standard GSM and GPRS enabled cellphones such as the Pocket PC Phone by March of 2003.
