“ViaVoice for Linux Available Immediately from Red Hat, Caldera
Systems Distribution Planned”
“IBM today announced its award-winning ViaVoice speech
recognition technology is available for the Linux operating
environment. ViaVoice is the first commercial speech recognition
technology to be ported to the Linux environment.”
“IBM’s initial Linux offering will include a beta version of IBM
ViaVoice Software Developers Kit (SDK) for Linux, IBM ViaVoice Run
Time Kit for Linux and open source sample applications. These
technologies provide the foundation for application developers to
incorporate speech recognition technology into the next generation
of applications. The initial beta version of ViaVoice engine and
SDK for Linux is available in U.S. English. Red Hat Software will
be the first to distribute IBM’s speech technology as part of the
company’s Linux 6.0 Application CD(a), also announced today. In the
coming months, IBM plans to extend its ViaVoice for Linux offering
to support a variety of languages, additional content and
distribution channels, including Caldera Systems.”
