\nREAL-TIME SPEECH RECOGNITION <\/strong>
\nNowadays, the softwares transcribing voice into text are getting more and more accurate. Some start-ups find real-life uses of speech-to-text techniques, where an app captures your speech and returns it into text. A very relevant example is the start-up \u201cRoger Voice\u201d which enables deaf people to speak with call centers via an app. Roger Voice\u2019s app captures the agent\u2019s words and transcribes it into text.

\nEMERGENCY CALLS\/SMS INCLUDING LOCATION DATA<\/strong>
\nDid you know that you could automatically send geo-location data through voice or SMS?
\nThis solution existed for a while but was greatly improved by Google with its Advanced Mobile Location (AML). Pushing a certain button on an app can send an SMS or generate an automated call including location data. This call\/SMS can actually be triggered by any specific action through an API. Thanks to this technology, emergency calls in the UK automatically generate an SMS with the geolocation of the caller. In the past, people in emergency situations were not always able to give their localization to the police or the hospital. Now the call center instantly receives the data, no matter what happens.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
