Hands Free SMS


Microsoft has teamed up with voice recognition software firm Nuance to develop its own hands-free text software for use with Microsoft Sync. The software would allow users to dictate SMS messages and possibly emails later on down the line. This would undoubtedly result in far less cellphone-related accidents..

Using the Microsoft Sync system already available in many Ford models in the US, you’ll be able to dictate text messages, and perhaps eventually do the same with e-mail, Auto Express says.
“We are aiming for natural communication between car and driver, which will have benefits for concentration and safety,” a Nuance spokeswoman said.
The software is likely to surface in the UK sometime early 2008, and will be installed in the latest Mercedes C-Class. Ford was also said to be interested in introducing the system here.
