Definitions
- the electrical device according to the invention with the features of the main claim has the advantage that, due to the monosyllabic speech input, the error rate in the recognition of voice input is minimized and greater independence from voice input with dialect or accent is achieved.
- Another advantage is that the operation for the user is greatly simplified and the effort of his attention and time for voice input is reduced to a minimum, since no multi-syllable syntactically complex terms have to be formulated.
- the monosyllabic voice commands are hardly perceived by other road users as lip movements in the sense of a pathologically conspicuous soliloquy.
- the measures listed in the subclaims permit advantageous developments and improvements of the electrical device specified in the main claim.
- Position indicators are spatially assigned, preferably in the immediate vicinity, of the operating functions that can be displayed on the display device. In this way, the ease of use for the user is further increased, since there is a clear and quick and error-free assignment of the position indicators to the associated operating functions.
- This spatial assignment can be realized particularly easily if the position indicators are advantageously arranged on the border of the display device.

- the basic setting of the user interface 20 according to FIG. 1 can serve the status line 75 to display the date, the day of the week and the time.
- the basic setting of the user interface 20 is displayed by pressing the menu button 65 causes.
- Letters can also be used instead of or in combination with the numbers as position indicators 40, ..., 51. It is important to only allow those numbers and letters as position indicators 40, ..., 51 that are monosyllabic.
- the position indicators 40, ..., 51 can also be designed as keys, the actuation of which activates the associated operating function. According to the present invention, however, it is provided that the operating functions are activated by voice input.
- FIG. 1 the user would like to activate the tenth operating function 34, that is to say the telephone function. For this purpose, he speaks the word "ten" as a corresponding position indicator 49, which is sent via the microphone 5 to a module 10 for speech evaluation in accordance with that shown in FIG.
- Block diagram is forwarded.
- the selection of the tenth operating function 34 is then identified by a colored background, in FIG. 1 this corresponds to the hatched representation of the tenth operating function 34 shown on the user interface 20.
- any or a predetermined operating function 25,..., 36 is first highlighted in color.
- either the associated position indicator must be activated by voice or when the position indicators 40, ..., 51 are configured as keys by pressing the appropriate key or by pressing the confirmation key 70.
- a voice function or key press selects a control function other than the preset 25, ..., 36, the colored background changes to the newly selected control function, which is then activated either immediately or after pressing the confirmation key 70.
- the selection of the name can of course be carried out as keys trained position indicators 40, ..., 51 can also be carried out again by pressing the appropriate button.
- the selected telephone subscriber can either be dialed immediately after the corresponding voice input or pressing the button or initiated by pressing the confirmation button 70.
- 20 further submenus can be displayed on the user interface and selected in the manner described.
- Figure 3 shows a block diagram for the control of the car radio 1.
- the microphone 5 is connected to the module 10 for speech evaluation, in which there is a table with the existing monosyllabic position indicators 40, ..., 51.
- the voice evaluation module 10 an input voice command is compared with the position indicators 40,..., 51 stored in the table.
- a control unit 80 is connected to the module 10 for speech evaluation, with which a keyboard 85, which includes the menu key 65, the confirmation key 70 and possibly the position indicators 40,..., 51 designed as keys, a circuit 90 and the display device 15 are connected. Depending on the comparison result in the module 10 for speech evaluation, the control unit 80 switches the user interface 20 on the display device 15 and, if necessary, to the
- commands can also be entered by pressing the menu key 65, the confirmation key 70 and, if the position indicators 40, ..., 51 are formed as keys, also by pressing these keys, and by the control unit 80 to activate the display device 15 and the circuit 90 are processed.
- the control unit 80 In the event that the commands entered via the position indicators 40,..., 51 are critical, possibly irreversible commands, the control unit 80 must first represent the command acoustically and / or optically and the execution via the circuit 90 interrupt the command. Only after the corresponding position indicator 40,..., 51 has been re-entered via the microphone 5 or via the keyboard 85 can the control unit 80 cause the circuit 90 to execute the command. It is also conceivable that
- Critical commands can be commands such as “delete”, “reset”, etc.
- an operating function can be provided on the user interface 20, which enables a previously executed command to be canceled if it was reversible. This correction function is represented in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2 by the eleventh operating function 35.
- FIG. 4 shows a flow chart for the mode of operation of the block diagram according to FIG. 3.
- the program is started.
- a program point 100 a check is carried out to determine whether speech has been input on the microphone 5. If this is the case, the program branches to program point 105, otherwise the program branches to program point 115.
- program point 105 a comparison between the entered voice command and in module 10 is made in module 10 for speech evaluation
- Voice evaluation stored position indicators 40, ..., 51 performed.
- program point 110 it is checked whether the comparison was successful, that is to say whether the voice command entered had already been stored in module 10 for voice evaluation. If this is the case, the program branches to program point 135, otherwise the program branches to program point 125.
- program point 125 a display is shown on display device 15 that the voice command entered was not understood by module 10 for speech evaluation. Then becomes the program item 130 branches out, in which, after passing through a waiting loop, the previous user interface 20 on the display device 5 is switched over again. The program then branches back to program point 100.
- program point 115 it is checked whether there is a keyboard input. If this is the case, the program branches to program point 135, otherwise the program branches to program point 120.
- a waiting loop is run through at program point 120 and the program then branches back to program point 100.
- program point 135 it is checked whether a new selection menu is to be displayed on the user interface 20. If this is the case, the program branches to program point 140, otherwise the program branches to program point 145.
- program point 140 a correspondingly new user interface 20 is shown on the display device 15. The program then branches back to program point 100.
- the entered command is executed at program point 145, it not being necessary to display a new user interface 20 since there are no further selection options.
- menu key 65 If the menu key 65 is pressed when the display device 15 is switched on, then a command is executed at program point 145, which leads to the display device 15 being switched off. If necessary, a separate operating function can also be provided on the user interface 20 for this shutdown process. A function for deactivating the display device 15 is provided in FIG. 2 in the form of the tenth operating function 34. By pressing the menu button 65, a switchover to the basic menu of the basic setting can also be implemented, wherein this operating function can also be provided on the user interface of corresponding submenus for activation. The program branches from program point 145 to program point 150.
- FIG. 1 The operating functions specified in FIG. 1 can, of course, only be realized if the additional devices required for this are connected to the car radio 1 or integrated into it.
