    Voiceportal: The Voice Web: by Manish Chowdhary Igor Bolgachenko Bingchen Li Min Fang

    VoicePortal proposes a system that combines telephones and computers to create a "voice web" or "network of networks" allowing users to access information and services over the telephone. The system would use speech recognition and text-to-speech technologies to allow users without computers to have 24/7 internet access through voice commands from any phone. Some potential applications include accessing news, weather, sports and directions as well as using the system as a communication platform. For the system to work, it would require powerful servers with speech processing hardware and software, dedicated phone lines, and a reliable internet connection. Income could be generated through service fees, advertisements, and online shopping accessed through voice commands.
