I was thinking today about devices that could be used conveniently in a
home automation setting. Using a phone has a lot of advantages, but I
wouldn't want to have to pick up a phone and speed-dial the recognition
system to control something. Then I started thinking that if when you
picked up a phone in the house that instead of just getting a regular
dialtone, you got a voice greeting and at the point you could either
speak a command, or ignore the voice prompt and dial normally.
Has anyone else thought about this at all or gotten anything to work?
One thing that I think would be desirable is to accomplish this in such
a way that changes to the regular dialplan processing are minimal so
that you could continue to use tools like FreePBX to configure call
handling for normally dialed calls, but once a voice command was
recognized the normal dialplan processing could be escaped completely
(in my case the call could be taken over by a voice driven app written
in Java).
Any thoughts?
Steve

I've been told that Don Jackson the CTO of Tellme has a voice driven
application residing in his home asterisk server that has all types of
hookups for non phone related applications.
However you are going to need some funky speech recognition processing
power to drive what you are looking for so it comes back to....does
Lumenvox have what you need or do you need to step up to Voxeo or
similar.
I don't know if needing to have the 'speech control' take over every
time I lift a handset is necessary - sometimes I just want to make a
call - how about dial extension 1 and get put into a speech control
session, from there you could issue defined commands, lights - on, or
alarm - on etc
