Verbal cues for high-speed control of a voice-enabled device

Abstract:

A technique for controlling a voice-enabled device using voice commands includes receiving an audio signal that is generated in response to a verbal utterance, generating a verbal utterance indicator for the verbal utterance based on the audio signal, selecting a first command for a voice-controlled application residing within the voice-enabled device based on the verbal utterance indicator, and transmitting the first command to the voice-controlled application as an input.
