Abstract

The present disclosure describes a communication environment having a service provider server that receives an audio command from a display control device within the communication environment. The service provider server can translate this audio command into an electrical command for controlling the display device. The service provider server autonomously performs a specifically tailored search of a catalog of command words and/or phrases for the audio command to translate the audio command to the electrical command. This specifically tailored search can include one or more searching routines having various degrees of complexity. The most simplistic searching routine from among these searching routines represents a textual search to identify one or more command words and/or phrases from the catalog of command words and/or phrases that match the audio command. The one or more searching routines can include more complex searching routines, such as a keyword search and/or a natural language search, of the catalog of command words and/or phrases to identify one or more command words and/or phrases from the catalog of command words and/or phrases that match the audio command.
