As consumers acquire more and more digital content, they quickly run into the problem of how to navigate through it all. Ireland-based Amulet Devices attempts to address the problem with their voice-enabled remote control and software.
Currently, the remote works with software that sits on top of Vista Media Center, then via the remote, users can speak a command such as: “Play Artist Sting”. Amulet Devices is planning future products that would expand voice control to home automation. So you will be able to fulfill all your Sci-Fi fantasies of walking into a room and simply saying “Lights” (or for you Demolition Man fans… “Illuminate”).
But as digital content grows, it becomes increasingly important to address how users will interact and access their content. Both CE and content companies should work together to enable the consumer to get what they want as simply as possible. This not only means solving interoperability, but developing UI and other human interface systems that work intuitively.
