'Mercedes-Benz, Becker deploy Nuance speech technology'

Sep 04, 2009 (DMEUROPE via COMTEX) -- Nuance Communications' One-Shot Destination Entry speech recognition technology has been deployed in the current Mercedes-Benz S-Class in-car navigation systems and in Becker's Traffic Assistant Z204 and Z205 portable navigation devices. Nuance's One-Shot Destination Entry allows the user to speak an entire address in one command versus a series of multi-step dialogue and response commands for city and street. The launch of Mercedes-Benz's Linguatronic technology is being debuted in the S-Class and is initially available in Europe. Becker's Traffic Assist Z 204 and Z 205 feature Nuance's One-Shot Speech Dialogue System. The devices, which feature 3-D map displays and Bluetooth compatibility, are currently available across Europe.
