[Asterisk-Users] Vocera Communication Badge

2003-12-27 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
Hi there,

yesterday I came across the Vocera Communication Badge and now I'd like
to know if anyone here has played with that thing (or even just seen it
in real life), and if a price tag can be found for this device?
Too bad they don't use SIP... ;-(

Looks interesting. I seem to remember something a while back regarding
VoiceXML and the TellMe folks.  Maybe there is something that is open
sourced regarding speach recognition on the server side.  An open sourced
hardware, as recently discussed, should be able to be packaged so that it
could also be a wearable device even if part is on the belt and the 
speech I/O as separate.

Will check with come contacts and see if anyone was involved in the U.S.S.
Coronado tests.

Now I also found an interesting review comparing client solutions for 
VoIP throug WLAN (let's add a wireless keyword for the search engines):

http://www.kinetowireless.com/news/industry_articles/vowlan_takeoff.html

This includes a secion on the Vocera. The concept as such surely deserves 
some aaahs and hs... :-)

OK, for the non off-topic response, In the link above, I found this
statement:

For those who find standards important to their enterprise, Vocera does not
currently use SIP, but plans to add limited support for it in the future.
