3. A voice browser is a software application that presents an
interactive voice user interface to the user in a manner analogous to
the functioning of a web browser.
Dialog documents interpreted by voice browser are often encoded
in standards-based markup languages, such as (VoiceXML).
A voice browser presents information aurally, using pre-recorded
audio file playback or text-to-speech synthesis software.
A voice browser obtains information using speech recognition and
keypad entry, such as DTMF detection.

4. Use of the hands during browsing might prove inconvenient
or impossible.
Voice input is a natural solution for such ands-busy
situations.
Even in standard browser applications, using voice input is
simply more fun than the alternatives.
Voice input provides direct "see and say" access to links,
eliminating the wrist strain associated with holding the mouse
for often hours at a time.
This is most helpful for the disabled persons.

5. Far more people today have access to a telephone than have
access to a computer with an Internet connection.
Many of us have already or soon will have a mobile phone within
reach wherever we go.
Voice interaction can escape the physical limitations on keypads
and displays as mobile devices become ever smaller.
Disadvantages to existing methods:WAP (Cellular phones, Palm
Pilots)
1. Access Speed
2. Limited or fragmented availability
3. Price
4. Lack of user habit

6. Differences Between Graphical & Voice
Browsing
Graphical browsing is more
passive due to the persistence of
the visual information.
Graphical Browsers are
client-based.
Voice browsing is more active
since the user has to issue
commands.
whereas Voice Browsers are
server-based.

8. VoiceXML (VXML) is a digital document standard for
specifying interactive media and voice dialogs between humans
and computers.
The VoiceXML document format is based on Extensible
Markup Language(XML).

10. A speech recognition grammar is a set of word patterns, and tells a
speech recognition system what to expect a human to say.
SRGS specifies two alternate but equivalent syntaxes, one based on
XML, and one using augmented BNF format. In practice, the XML
syntax is used more frequently.

11. Semantic Interpretation for Speech Recognition (SISR) defines
the syntax and semantics of annotations to grammar rules in the
Speech Recognition Grammar Specification (SRGS).
It allows voice browsers via ECMAScript to semantically interpret
complex grammars and provide the information back to the
application.
Coders commonly use ECMAScript for client-side scripting on the
World Wide Web, and it is increasingly being used for writing server
applications.

12. The Pronunciation Lexicon Specification (PLS) is a W3C
Recommendation which is designed to enable interoperable
specification of pronunciation information for both speech
recognition and speech synthesis engines within voice browsing
applications.
Pronunciations are grouped together into a PLS document which
may be referenced from other markup languages.

13. CCXML is designed to inform the voice browser how to handle
the telephony control of the voice channel.
The two XML applications are wholly separate and are not
required by each other to be implemented - however, they have been
designed with interoperability in mind
CALL CONTROL

15. Accessing business information:
1. The corporate "front desk" which asks callers who or what they wa
2. Automated telephone ordering service .
3. Airline arrival and departure information.
4. Home banking services.
Accessing public information:
Application
1. Community information such as weather, traffic condition,
school closures, directions and events.
2. Local, national and international news.
3. National and international stock market information.
4. Business and e-commerce transactions.

17. Advantages of Voice Browser
Voice is very natural user interface which speeds up browsing.
Less space requirements.
Portable voice browser can also be implemented.
Practical interface for blind users.
User can browse web while keeping there hands and eyes for
other jobs.

18. Disadvantages of voice browser
This is useful if only a restricted volume of phrases and sentences
is used.
It require large storage.
Limited vocabulary.

19. If voice browsers are meant to replace human operator dialog,
they must be fast in response.
Speech Recognition / Interpretation / Synthesis depend on
implementation
When a user requests a certain document, several related
documents can be downloaded for easier access.
