Abstract
A method of providing hands-free services using a mobile device having wireless access to computer-based services includes establishing a short range wireless connection between a mobile device and one or more audio devices that include at least a microphone and speaker; receiving at the mobile device speech inputted via the microphone from a user and sent via the short range wireless connection; wirelessly transmitting the speech input from the mobile device to a speech recognition server that provides automated speech recognition (ASR); receiving at the mobile device a speech recognition result representing the content of the speech input; determining a desired service by processing the speech recognition result using a first, service-identifying grammar; determining a user service request by processing at least some of the speech recognition result using a second, service-specific grammar associated with the desired service; initiating the user service request and receiving a service response; generating an audio message from the service response; and presenting the audio message to the user via the speaker.
