1950s and 1960s: Baby Talk-The first speech recognition systems could
understand only digits. (Given the complexity of human language, it makes
sense that inventors and engineers first focused on numbers.) Bell
Laboratories designed in 1952 the "Audrey" system, which recognized digits
spoken by a single voice.
In-car systems- Simple voice commands may be used to initiate phone calls,
select radio stations or play music from a compatible smartphone, MP3 player
or music-loaded flash drive. Voice recognition capabilities vary between car
make and model.
Military- Substantial efforts have been devoted in the last decade to the test
and evaluation of speech recognition in fighter aircraft.

decode the command received. When a voice input is given, the extractor
extracts the voice and passes it to decoder based on either acoustic or language
model. This decoded voice input is converted into digital signal and the software
studies the digital command and gives output accordingly. The diagram shows
the basic working of a voice recognition system.
