“Voice Command, Control and Search on Mobile Phones” added to ReportBuy

Sept. 26, 2012 - PRLog -- ReportBuyer.com has added a new report http://www.reportbuyer.com/go/ARC00061
Summary of Report  -
Despite being primarily a voice device, the mobile phone is largely controlled by non-voice mechanisms. Keypads and touchscreens continue to act as the primary modes of input. However, handsets now sit on the cusp of full command and control through voice, largely being fuelled as smartphone platforms play catch-up with Apple's Siri.
This report provides a comprehensive insight into the growing importance of voice command, control and search on handsets, analysing the impact this shift is having on the entire mobile ecosystem, from platform owners to OEMs and from carriers to web-content providers.
