Abstract :
Applications of voice technology in modern automobiles are discussed. A major goal of this technology is to add artificial intelligence to the instruments. Two aspects of speech technology are discussed, namely, speech synthesis and speech recognition. Speech synthesis is mainly used to generate verbal warning messages whenever a problem is detected in the vehicle. In addition, verbal messages can be generated to advise the driver to perform a certain task to improve the performance of the automobile. In the application of speech recognition, the basic goal is to create hands-free control of some of the automobile functions through the driver´s voice. A review of existing voice systems is given
