To provide a voice-activated control system.
A voice recognition program digitizes a voice command transmitted to an audio signal receiver such as a microphone and produces an address and a function corresponding to a component to which the voice command is directed. The digitized signal is converted by a signal converter to an IR signal, which is transmitted via an LCC bus to one or more devices. A device that has an appropriate address is activated to perform the function and/or provide feedback to the system. Voice-activated systems are provided which rely on such a decentralized control approach while such a third type of system uses a hybrid system that uses LCC-based and electrical-based inputs. Methods are also provided for activating and controlling one or more components of a system through a voice-activated system.
