Playstation2 version first videogame to feature Fonix VoiceIn technology for speech recognition…
Ubisoft today announced that it has partnered with Fonix Corp to incorporate Fonix VoiceIn technology for the Playstation2 version of Ghost Recon 2.
Ghost Recon 2 will be the first Playstation2 videogame to be released with Fonix VoiceIn technology, allowing for speech recognition with lower memory consumption and processing power requirements.
"Fonix VoiceIn's easy development platform allowed our team to focus on developing a really cool game with an exciting, accessible play interface rather than allotting resources to tweak the speech engine," said Helene Juguet, director of brand marketing for Ubisoft. "Voice recognition has become one of Ghost Recon players' favorite features. Fonix VoiceIn provides accurate recognition as well as an easier set of development tools, and we didn't need to spend time customizing the recognition engine."
"Players love the realism and increased interaction voice recognition adds to games," said Tim K. Hong, vice president of Fonix Mobile Wireless & Games. "Fonix VoiceIn provides a common development interface across Xbox, PS2, PC and Mac platforms, which allows developers to easily add voice to any game. The industry is seeing that new modes of game play are necessary to increase market share. We believe VoiceIn is a great way for publishers to offer increased usability, fun and innovation on new games that doesn't require costly development time or special voice technology expertise to implement."
