Microsoft will improve the voice search in Windows Phone

Demonstrated during the TechFest, new opportunities for voice search in Windows Phone should allow the publisher to catch up in this area with the next version known as Code Blue.

 Speech recognition is a feature that Microsoft has been working for many years in many applications. However, success has never really been the appointment despite innovative features to compete, at least in the past. Indeed, on smartphones, Microsoft has largely overtaken by Siri available on the Apple platform and Google Android platform. But Microsoft does not have the weapons and the next version of Windows, known as the Code Blue and is said she could leave next summer in declination Phone, could allow Microsoft to regain leadership in field.

The presentation was made during TechFest conference held a few weeks ago on the Microsoft campus. TechFest is the opportunity for the unit to Microsoft Research to show some of its achievements. One participant has filmed several lectures by Eric Rudder, Chief Technical Strategy Officer of the company.

On one of them, you can see the new voice recognition technology compared to currently installed. Besides the fact that it is much faster, it is also more interactive. Finally, a function quite impressive (but of course demand to be confirmed by actual use) is the ability of recognition in a noisy environment. You can discover all this in the video below.
