Abstract
A speech-enabled device management and access platform includes a communication module which provides a remote control device and a controlled device with data/speech paths; a connection management module which maintains the communication network and provides security administration and device access control; a device management module which discovers a controlled device and gathers respective controlled device data; a speech processing module which converts a speech command into a data command corresponding to the controlled device or converts a data response from the controlled device into a speech response and provides it to the communication module; and a command/event management module which generates instructions based on the data command and sends the instructions to corresponding modules or the controlled device. The inventive device management and access platform preferably is adapted to use the well-known BLUETOOTH™ wireless technology.
