AllThingsD: If you’ve ever spoken to or been spoken to by a computer or a smartphone, there’s a pretty good chance that there’s technology from Nuance involved. Over the last decade or so, Nuance has accumulated an impressive portfolio of voice-related technologies. That puts it front and center in the battle to control what’s likely going to be the way we control our devices and computing environment in the post-PC era. In fact it acquired a company in the in-car infotainment business today.
The platform enables natural language processing for tasks such as phone dialing, music search and playback, and message dictation.
