In at least one embodiment of the application, a kind of guider 200 comprises: processor 210, in order to receive to enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200, and in order to after receiving the audio frequency input, based on described next at least one option of determining about the address information of the destination of advancing of audio frequency input that receives; And output unit 241, in order to export at least one fixed option in the audio frequency mode about the address information of the destination of advancing, described processor 210 can be confirmed the selection at least one option of exporting in the audio frequency mode further in order to after receiving sure audio frequency input.
Fig. 5 illustrates the process flow diagram of the application's exemplary embodiment.In the embodiment shown in Fig. 5, determine in step S2 at first whether the audio frequency recognition mode is enabled in guider.For instance, as shown in Fig. 6 A, icon can be shown in the integrated form input and display device 290 of guider 200.This icon can be imported/selected your destination being shown in initial menu or follow-up menu before being used for setting up course for you to choose, and/or can (for example) show with cartographic information during using guider with navigation mode.This icon can only comprise and illustrate (for example, the lip shown in Fig. 6 A), and/maybe can comprise literal, described literal instruction button is corresponding to the audio frequency recognition mode, for example audio frequency speech identification (ASR).After the processor 210 of guider 200 received the indication of selecting the icon as shown in Fig. 6 A, the audio frequency recognition mode can be enabled by processor 210.
The audio frequency recognition mode can comprise that processor 210 works together in conjunction with ASR engine or module.This ASR engine or module are software engines, in case the audio frequency recognition mode is explained as mentioned and is activated like that, described software engine just can be loaded (for example) syntax rule with the language performance of country's (or for example being selected by the user) of the user of guider 200.Therefore, the user of guider 200 will key in/select the country at described user place usually, and then the language of described country can be selected, imports or be mated to processor 210.Thereafter, after the audio frequency recognition mode was activated, the ASR engine can then be loaded the syntax rule from storer 230.The ASR engine can then use the language corresponding to selected map to come identification geographic name (for example, city title and street name), and the language that uses the active user to select/enable comes the common speech of identification.For instance, system can be through being provided with to enable the identification from user's complicated speech, perhaps can only limit to be, deny, finish, return and/or for example simple answer of digital clauses and subclauses such as 1,2,3.
ASR engine or module are the engine or the modules of enabling the cable voice port between user and the guider 200.This module is not generally available in the portable navigating device 200 (for example Fig. 2 of the application is to the guider 200 shown in Fig. 4 B), but the application's embodiment improves or even optimize memory management between (for example) processor 210 and the storage arrangement 230, and data structure, dispose and the identification input information to allow the ASR module.Basically, during the speech identification; Promptly after being activated among the step S2 of audio frequency recognition mode at Fig. 5, all in the storage arrangement 230 of guider 200 or most of available memory are assigned to the ASR module, and other process of processor 210 is suspended.Certainly, during using guider 200 with navigation mode, some process that is exclusively used in show navigator information and output navigation instruction must continue, and therefore makes the operation of ASR module slack-off sometimes.
In the application's a exemplary embodiment, the ASR module is mainly used in based on the audio frequency that receives and imports and the address information of the destination of selecting to advance, and therefore operation when guider 200 does not use with navigation mode usually.After guider 200 is with the navigation mode operation, another embodiment of the application relates to formulation and can be by (for example) from the user/simple problem of not answering, with so make processing power can be assigned to navigation mode, wherein only need in the ASR module a spot of processing power come identification from this of the user of guider 200 be/do not answer.Therefore, although the process shown in Fig. 5 can used guider 200 manipulate with navigation mode, but be included in the guider 200 back and/or after the ASR module is used to identification (for example) and is/denys limited input information at enough storeies 230, operation shown in Fig. 5 usually occurs in before the starting of means of transport at guider 200 places, promptly before the destination of will advancing is input in the guider 200 and before course is determined.
Return referring to Fig. 5, in step S2, if the audio frequency recognition mode is not activated, systemic circulation is returned with repeating step S2 so.Yet, if the audio frequency recognition mode is received (for example) processor 210 of the indication of " with my the talk " icon shown in selection Fig. 6 A is enabled, language and syntactic information are loaded into the ASR module of guider 200 from storer 230 so, and in step S4, guider 200 is only waited for the audio frequency input.If do not receive the audio frequency input, system only circulates and returns with repeating step S4 so, till receiving the audio frequency input.
The ASR module is commonly used to the speech information of identification from different user.This information is normally uncertain, and therefore can't be stored in the storer 230.ASR module or engine associative processor 210 and operate, so that in a known way the speech information that receives is converted to aligned phoneme sequence, and then cooperate so that the existing grammer of the city of being stored, street name etc. and the aligned phoneme sequence through changing are complementary with processor 210.
In step S6, if receive the audio frequency input, processor 210 is phoneme with the cooperation of ASR module will import voice conversion so, and institute's canned data in aligned phoneme sequence and the storer 230 is compared, to determine at least one option based on the audio frequency input that receives about the address information of the destination of advancing.For instance, at least one embodiment, can comprise the city title about at least one option of the address information of the destination of advancing.Therefore, the user can the audio frequency mode export the city title, as the part of the address information of the destination of advancing, wherein can point out initial input by go into the to advance request (for example, " in which city ") of destination information of guider 200 display keys to the city.After receiving this audio-frequency information, processor 210 and ASR module such phoneme of handling as indicated above, and the city of being stored in this information and the storer 230 is compared, to determine at least one option (if possible) about the audio sound of being imported.If do not pick out anything, guider 200 can turn back to the screen of prompting input city or other address information so, and sparkling or can not glimmer, and perhaps otherwise shows (for example) message " input is not by identification ".To explain among another embodiment as the application, and also can show the sound designator to the user, the volume of its (for example) indicative audio input is in tolerance interval, than tolerance interval height or lower than tolerance interval.
If can determine at least one address information option (for example, the city) in step S6, process proceeds to step S8 so, in step S8, exports at least one fixed option about the address information of the destination of advancing in the audio frequency mode.For instance, replace only guessing that in system the audio frequency input is correctly received that processor 210 instructs the audio frequency output about at least one definite option of the address information of the destination of advancing in step S8.Thereafter, in step S10, processor 210 is waited for to check whether receive sure audio frequency output in step S10.If receive sure audio frequency output, processor 210 and ASR module can then confirm to take place correct determining so, therefore and can be receiving and identification certainly after the audio frequency input (for example, "Yes"), confirming that to exporting in the audio frequency mode at least one determined the selection of option.
Therefore, replace only guessing that in processor 210 and ASR module the audio frequency input is correct, at first at least one that export about address information in the audio frequency mode determined option, and up to receiving sure audio frequency input, just confirms the selection to described at least one definite option.
Such as among the step S6 statement, after receiving audio frequency input, at least one address information option of the destination of determining to advance, for example city title.Yet, at least one exemplary embodiment of the application, processor 210 identifications a plurality of " N the best " option (be not option only, notice that N can be arbitrary number, for example six).Basically, processor 210 is managed phoneme according to audio frequency input and is determined best city title (for example, under this first situation of the input of address information) in conjunction with the ASR module.Mate to seek in all each cities that processor 210 scannings or inspection are stored in the storer 230.Processor 210 then carries out classification to most probable coupling, makes that most probable coupling will be as having determined the user output of option with audio frequency mode navigation device 200 about at least one of the address information of the destination of advancing.
Therefore, after the sure audio frequency input in step S10, can confirm selection at least one definite option of exporting in the audio frequency mode.Yet, because can determine " N the best " city at first, so processor 210 also can instruct guider 200 to show " N the best " option list on integrated form input and display device 290, N optimum matching of the city title of determining by processor 210 for example.Most probable coupling based on the audio frequency input that receives from the user can the audio frequency mode be exported, and can further show (as the number one option in the shown tabulation) at the top of " N the best " tabulation with visual manner.Among step S14s, can visual manner to user show ensuing best option conduct through number-optional (for example, option two to six) thereafter.Thereafter, in step S16, can (for example) by integrated form input and display device 290 via showing and the option exported with visual manner is selected in follow-up input.If selected option, can in the step S20 of Fig. 5, confirm to select so by (for example) processor 210 with visual manner output.
Therefore, processor 210 and ASR module can not only be used for determining single option, and can be used to determine a plurality of options about the address information of the destination of advancing.For instance, can export each in described a plurality of option and can the audio frequency mode export only option by visual manner.Can export described a plurality of option by visual manner, on the input of the integrated form of guider 200 and display device 290, selecting.In these options each (for example, sounding the tabulation as the city of described audio frequency input) can be determined and show, and can be by at least one selection in touch panel and the audio output.In addition, via the indication that receives the touch panel input, can further select to export at least one option in the audio frequency mode.In addition, via the indication that receives the touch panel input and/or by the audio frequency input (for example, the user says that " two " select second displayed items) corresponding to the numbering of displayed items, optional majority is determined each in the option.
As a limiting examples, if the user of guider 200 exports city " salt lake city (SaltLake City) " in the audio frequency mode, processor 210 and ASR module can determine to treat " N the best " city list with audio frequency and visual manner output so.First city in the shown tabulation can be " salt lake city ", and can export and export with visual manner in the audio frequency mode on the input of the integrated form of (for example) guider and display device 290.In addition, processor 210 and ASR module can be determined other " N the best " city, comprise (for example) five other cities, for example, Salem (Salem), Sacramento (Sacramento), San Antonio (San Antonio), Springfield (Springfield) and Si Dandun (Staunton).In the application's a exemplary embodiment, " N the best " tabulation comprises a fixed number option, for example, and six options.Then can show these six options (number one option and five best cities of other N), to be used for audio frequency or touch panel input/selection to the user.Therefore, if all six options show in order that on the touch panel of integrated form input and display device 290 user can only touch and and then select one in described six options so.Perhaps, when in the audio frequency mode when the user exports first option " salt lake city ", the user can confirm selection to the described option of exporting in the audio frequency mode by sending sure audio frequency input.Perhaps, the user can be only selects any one (or even, for example first option) in other five displayed items by saying numbering (for example, representing " 6 " of the 6th option " Si Dandun ") corresponding to particular options.
By utilizing only one the audio frequency input in the input of sure audio frequency and/or six digital values, processor 210 increases the possibility of the selection that confirms users, and and then can confirm the selection of user to particular options fully.
Thereafter, in case the user has selected a city title, and this is chosen in and obtains among step S12 or the S20 confirming that the user just can send another audio frequency output, and for processor 210 and the input/reception of ASR module, described another audio frequency is exported corresponding to (for example) street name.Thereafter, after the selection of city title and after receiving the output of another audio frequency, processor 210 and ASR module can be determined at least one street name.Again, processor 210 and ASR module can be determined " N the best " street name tabulation, select subsequently for described user with user's output of audio frequency and/or visual manner navigation device 200 being used for subsequently.Can the mode identical select with the mode of before being discussed about the city title.
At last, the user can the audio frequency mode exports the numbering corresponding to last key element of the destination-address of advancing, for processor 210 and the input/reception of ASR module, described numbering can be by identification, and can be used to determine " N the best " tabulation in the mode identical with the mode of before having been stated about city and street name.Perhaps, the user can only key in the digital key element (numbering) of the address of the destination of advancing.So, can import the full address of the destination of advancing, and its preprocessor 210 can use described address to determine course (for example, in conjunction with the cartographic information of being stored in the gps signal of current location of indication guider 200 and the storer 230).
The process that it should be noted that Fig. 5 can start from (for example) country and/or state but not the audio frequency input and the identification of city title.In addition, after having determined the tabulation of a plurality of countries, state, city, street etc. or its " N the best ", in described a plurality of country, state, city or the street name each can be exported by visual manner, and only one export in the audio frequency mode, for subsequently by touch panel input or audio frequency input it is selected with the similar mode of previously described mode.
As discussed previously, Fig. 6 A is provided for enabling the explanation of limiting examples of the icon selected of audio frequency recognition mode.It should be noted that after enabling this audio frequency recognition mode, can change icon display, being activated to user's indicative audio recognition mode, and system is only waiting for and is receiving audio frequency input (for example, as indicated in the step 4 of Fig. 5).Described demonstration can comprise and changes shown icon in some way, for example, changes the color of the virtual push button shown in Fig. 6 A, or otherwise changes the outward appearance of this virtual push button/icon.This is showed among Fig. 6 B, notes, when waiting for the audio frequency input, described button can be different colors, and is for example green.
For example among step S6s, when in system just determining advance the address information option of destination, can once more in for example Fig. 6 C shown in the mode of mode change virtual push button/icon thereafter.At last, export at least one definite option (the step S8 of Fig. 5) in the audio frequency mode after, can change icon once more, for example, as shown in Fig. 6 D.This can provide feedback about the use of audio frequency recognition mode to the user.
Should note, among the step S6 of Fig. 5 based on the input of the audio frequency that receives to determining to relate to the advance country/state/city/street address of destination of normal mode input about at least one option of the address information of the destination of advancing, and/maybe can relate to based on destination, focus, preference (favorite) wait and determine the destination of advancing recently, for example, as shown in Figure 7.Therefore, in step S2, receive the indication of enabling the audio frequency recognition mode after, can on the input of the integrated form of (for example) guider 200 and display device 290, show for example message of " where you think " to the user.Thereafter, the initial audio input that receives in step S4 can be the audio frequency input about the speech of information category, for example, and " family " 710, " preference " 720, " address " 730, " destination recently " 740 or " focus (POI) " 750.Processor 210 and ASR module can be through programming with one in identification aforesaid kind 710,720,730,740 or 750, make described fixed at least one option about the address information of the destination of advancing to comprise conventional information, for example city, state, street name etc., the information that perhaps can comprise other type, for example focus, preference etc.Again, in these processes each can be determined the output about the option of the address information of the destination of advancing, note, can the audio frequency mode export most possible option, and confirm selection to described option by affirming audio frequency input (or touch panel input), wherein export other " N the best " option with visual manner, at least one in wherein importing by audio frequency and vision confirmed the selection to described other option.
In an exemplary embodiment, identification can followingly be carried out:
For instance, the identification process of geographic name (city, street and crossroad) can carry out according to following rule:
Described process can be initial by the user (for example, selecting the speech recognition address entry).
If think that identification input can be accepted by processor 210/ASR module, processor 210/ASR module then can manage to make the aligned phoneme sequence accepted and the known array of selected grammer to be complementary so.The precompiler grammer (tabulation of the title of having known) and the dynamic part (by the title of user's interpolation) of grammer are made up herein.May emphasize this part, because it is relevant with shared (MapShare) technology of map.
On integrated form input and display device 290, show that processor 210/ASR module then can be presented to the user with the result via form with the N best list.For instance, if current speech is the TTS voice, can export best clauses and subclauses (first in the tabulation) to the user so.
The user then can accept or refuse described result.Under first kind of situation, processor 210/ASR module proceeds to next procedure, next procedure be to the next address level (city-＞street, street-＞crossroad or street-＞number) identification or the planning of route.Under second kind of situation, if having correct clauses and subclauses in the tabulation, the user might send the sound corresponding to the row of described clauses and subclauses number so, perhaps turns back to previous steps by saying that (for example) " returned ".
It should be noted that about the application's method and described in the aforementioned aspect of the embodiment of the present application each.Yet, at least one embodiment of the application is at a kind of guider 200, described guider 200 comprises: processor 210, in order to receive to enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200, and in order to after receiving the audio frequency input, based on described next at least one option of determining about the address information of the destination of advancing of audio frequency input that receives; And output unit 241, in order to export at least one fixed option in the audio frequency mode about the address information of the destination of advancing, described processor 210 can be further in order to after receiving sure audio frequency input, confirm selection to described at least one option of exporting in the audio frequency mode.When output unit 241 was enabled the demonstration of icon and/or selection and selection subsequently thereof, this guider 200 can further comprise integrated form input and display device 290, and/or can further comprise audio output device, for example loudspeaker.In addition, input media 220 can comprise microphone.Therefore, as those skilled in the art will appreciate that this guider 200 can be in order to carry out the various aspects of the method for describing to Fig. 7 about Fig. 5.Therefore, for the sake of brevity, omitted further explaination.
In at least one other embodiment of the application, a kind of method comprises: receive enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200; And after receiving, show that on integrated form input and display device 290 volume about the audio frequency input that receives is in tolerance interval, than the high still indication lower than described tolerance interval of described tolerance interval to the indication of enabling described audio frequency recognition mode.
In at least one other embodiment of the application, a kind of guider 200 comprises: processor 210, in order to receive to enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200; And integrated form input and display device 290, after receiving the indication of enabling described audio frequency recognition mode, show volume high or indication lower in tolerance interval, than described tolerance interval than described tolerance interval about the audio frequency input that receives at processor 210.
Show as previously referred, the application's embodiment can in order to user's indicative audio input (for example audio frequency of the step S4 of Fig. 5 input) whether in tolerance interval.As shown in Figure 8, in step S20, determine in conjunction with the ASR module whether the audio frequency recognition mode is activated at first by processor 210 (for example).If be activated, whether be determined to be in the tolerance interval on the volume of audio frequency input so and decide, can be in three different demonstrations of demonstration among step S24, S28 and the S32.For instance, after receiving the audio frequency input, processor 210 and ASR module can attempt to check and verify input information.If volume is in tolerance interval, processor 210 and ASR module determine that the possibility of correct input is bigger so.
Therefore, after the audio frequency recognition mode was activated the back and is receiving the audio frequency input information, whether the volume of determining the audio frequency input in step S22 was in tolerance interval.Can by processor 210 with the volume of the information that receives be stored in tolerance interval that (for example) in the storer have upper threshold and a threshold value lower limit and compare and finish this and determine.If in step S22, the volume of the audio frequency input that receives is in upper threshold value and lower threshold value, and processor determines that then the volume of audio frequency input is in tolerance interval so.Determine that in response to this described process moves on to step S24, in step S24, the demonstration that processor 210 instructs the indication of volume in tolerance interval.For instance, this demonstration can comprise that the color change of " with my the talk " icon that makes shown in Fig. 6 A is for example icon of icon shown in Fig. 6 B, and described icon (for example) is green, and indication is accepted.Perhaps, can show another designator, note once more that the color (for example, green) that available indication is accepted shows described designator.
If determine volume in step S22 not in tolerance interval, processor 210 then moves on to step S26 or step S30 so, and is higher or lower than tolerance interval than tolerance interval to determine volume.The order that it should be noted that step S26 and S30 is unimportant; Because can any order making this determines a bit.If determine that in step S26 volume than tolerance interval height, promptly greater than the upper threshold value of tolerance interval, can show an indication so in step S28, the indication volume is than tolerance interval height.For instance, available (for example) red (indicate color incorrect or that something or other is too high) come the icon of displayed map 6B, and indicative audio is imported too high, and/or can show red designator to the user, indicates volume too high once more.
Thereafter, or before step S26, processor 210 moves on to step S30, and in step S30, processor 210 determines whether volume is lower than tolerance interval.If volume is lower than tolerance interval, in step S32, can show an indication so, the indication volume is lower than tolerance interval.For instance, this can relate to the icon that usefulness (for example) yellow is come displayed map 6B, and is not high enough to the input of user's indicative audio.Perhaps, can (for example) on integrated form input and display device 290, show yellow designator.
It should be noted that green, redness and yellow use only are examples, and can utilize other color.In addition, also can use show volume in tolerance interval, other method of the indication high or lower than tolerance interval than tolerance interval, include, but is not limited to show the words that the indication user should whisper, speak up etc.Therefore, as shown in the exemplary embodiment of Fig. 8, the application's method can comprise reception to enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200, and shows on integrated form input and display device 290 and after receiving the indication of enabling the audio frequency recognition mode that volume about the audio frequency input that receives is in tolerance interval, than the high still indication lower than tolerance interval of tolerance interval.Described demonstration can comprise that (for example) is in order to show the demonstration of the colouring information of indicating, wherein yellow can be lower than tolerance interval in order to the audio frequency input that indication receives, red can the input than tolerance interval height, and green can the input in tolerance interval in order to the audio frequency that indication receives in order to the audio frequency that indication receives.
For instance, in conjunction with the process shown in Fig. 8, can receive the address information about user's the destination of advancing, whether wherein said demonstration can then indicate the information that receives in tolerance interval.Therefore, address information can comprise at least one in city name information and the street name information.In addition, after the address information that receives in tolerance interval, described process can comprise at least one in the following action: the described address information of identification, show the indication of no identification and tabulate for you to choose to user's Show Options on integrated form input and display device 290.Therefore, process shown in can integrated Fig. 5 and the process shown in Fig. 8.
It should be noted that about the application's method and described in the aforementioned aspect of the embodiment of the present application each.Yet at least one embodiment of the application is that guider 200 comprises at a kind of guider 200: processor 210, in order to receive to enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200; And integrated form input and display device 290, after receiving the indication of enabling described audio frequency recognition mode, show volume high or indication lower in tolerance interval, than described tolerance interval than described tolerance interval about the audio frequency input that receives at described processor 210.This guider 200 can further comprise audio output device, for example loudspeaker.In addition, input media 220 can comprise microphone.Therefore, as those skilled in the art will appreciate that this guider 200 can be in order to carry out the various aspects of the method for describing to Fig. 8 about Fig. 5.Therefore, for the sake of brevity, omitted further explaination.
At last, Fig. 9 is another embodiment at the application.Usually, when address information being typed in the guider 200, guider 200 does not use under navigation mode.Therefore, although the process of being stated among Fig. 5 can be used with the guider under the navigation mode 200, but situation is really not so usually, because advance the destination (according to the described destination of advancing in user's input just, can determine course) time, the means of transport at (for example) guider 200 places is normally static.
In at least one other embodiment of the application, a kind of method comprises: receive enabling the indication of the audio frequency recognition mode in the guider 200; Receive extraneous information from the user's that is different from described guider 200 source; Based on the described extraneous information that receives, formulation can be by the problem that is or does not answer from described user; And the problem of being formulated to described user output.
In at least one other embodiment of the application, a kind of guider 200 comprises: processor 210, in order to receive to enabling the indication of audio frequency recognition mode, receive extraneous information in order to source from the user that is different from described guider 200, and can be by the problem that is or does not answer from described user in order to formulate based on the described extraneous information that receives; And output unit 241, in order to the problem of being formulated to described user's output.
Fig. 9 of the application comprises the process of enabling that relates to the audio frequency recognition mode, and it more likely is used in the guider 200 on the means of transport that moves, and described guider is arranged in described means of transport; For example, under the situation of guider 200 with the navigation mode operation.
In the process shown in Fig. 9, in step S50, determine at first whether the audio frequency recognition mode is activated.For instance, can carry out this with the similar mode of previous described mode and determine, comprise (for example) identification the selection of icon shown in Fig. 6 A.In case this audio frequency recognition mode is activated, the processor 210 of guider 200 just not only monitors the reception from user's audio-frequency information, but also can monitor the reception from the extraneous information in the user's who is different from guider 200 source.Therefore, in step S52, processor 210 determines whether to receive the extraneous information from the source that is different from the user.This information can include, but is not limited to incoming call or message (for example, by guider 200 itself and/or the call or the SMS message that receive with paired mobile phone; The transport information that receives etc.) reception.If do not receive described additional message, process only circulates and returns and continue to monitor this information so.
Yet, if in step S52, receive extraneous information from the user's who is different from guider 200 source, process moves on to step S54 so, and in step S54, processor 210 is formulated based on the extraneous information that receives can be by the problem that is or does not answer from the user.For instance, processor 210 can monitor other system (for example, comprising paired mobile phone) in the guider 200, whether receives SMS message to determine (for example).If receive SMS message, so processor 210 can with ASR module and/or more likely TTS module (text-to-speech) cooperation, can be to formulate by the problem that is or does not answer from the user, described problem for example is " to receive new message; Should loudly it be read? "Thereafter, in step S56, the exportable problem of formulating is noted, preferably audio frequency output of described output (but also may be attended by the output of (for example) vision).Some similarly is, when guider 200 along the traffic delays of the route in special time cycle (for example can determine to receive indication, calculate in a known way by processor 210) traffic when upgrading, wherein processor 210 and TTS module can then be ordered, and " traffic delays on your route is " x " minute now in output (for example).You want again programme path so that postpone to reduce to minimum? "
The ASR module is usually in order to the speech information of identification from different user.This information is normally uncertain, and therefore can't normally be stored in the storer 230.As mentioned above, ASR module or engine associative processor 210 and operation be so that be converted to aligned phoneme sequence with dynamical fashion with the speech information that receives, and with processor 210 cooperation so that the existing grammer of the city of being stored, street name etc. be complementary with aligned phoneme sequence through conversion.So, the ASR module dynamically causes processor 210 to utilize big block storage 230.
On the contrary, when processor 210 is worked in conjunction with the TTS module, the TTS module form (for example) but predefine or the prerecord problem in storer 230.The audio-frequency information of the exportable any kind of of TTS module, its restrictive condition are that described audio-frequency information is to express with the pairing language of voice.The some parts that is considered to the phrase of the most normal use also can and use after a while by the prerecord of TTS module, storage, to improve the quality of output.Therefore, though the TTS module can be with thinking that the user is a voice output with simple SMS message conversion, but the common best combination processor 210 of TTS module and working, to be used for after processor 210 determines that for example extraneous information such as SMS message, traffic renewal has been received by guider 200, the pre-problem of formulating (if necessary, can make an amendment slightly) of output.SMS message that this information can comprise transport information, the call of importing into, import into etc.
In addition, the formulation of problem can comprise based on the information that receives information is inserted in the problem of being stored, and for example, traffic delays is inserted in the aforementioned traffic delays problem.Therefore, formulation can comprise based on the transport information that receives, and will be inserted in the problem of being stored about the information of the traffic delays that calculates.Thereafter, in step S56, the exportable problem of formulating is noted, described output can comprise at least one in audio frequency output and the vision output.
Usually formulate the problem of in step S56, exporting through formulating, receiving from being or not answering of user, with so processor 210 can when guider 200 is just operated with navigation mode, be operated in conjunction with the ASR module during transport condition.Under this pattern, guider 200 is just utilizing the major part of existing storer 230, and preferably makes the ASR module not utilize so many parts of storer 230.Be/deny problem by utilization, but processor 210 and ASR module easy identification user's weak point is or not answer.Thereafter, receive from the user be to answer after, guider 200 can be carried out subsequent action, is to answer and calculate new course from the user about the traffic delays that calculates based on receiving for example.Perhaps, when extraneous information is SMS message, can change SMS information by utilizing (for example) TTS module, and receive from the user be to answer after, the text message that can import into to user's output.
It should be noted that about the application's method and described in the aforementioned aspect of the embodiment of the present application each.Yet, at least one embodiment of the application is at a kind of guider 200, described guider 200 comprises: processor 210, in order to receive to enabling the indication of audio frequency recognition mode, receive extraneous information in order to source from the user that is different from described guider 200, and can be by the problem that is or does not answer from described user in order to formulate based on the extraneous information that receives; And output unit 241, in order to the problem of being formulated to described user's output.When output unit 241 was enabled the demonstration of icon and/or selection and selection subsequently thereof, this guider 200 can further comprise integrated form input and display device 290, and/or can further comprise audio output device, for example loudspeaker.In addition, input media 220 can comprise microphone.Therefore, as those skilled in the art will appreciate that this guider 200 can be in order to carry out the various aspects of the method for describing about Fig. 9.Therefore, for the sake of brevity, omitted further explaination.
