INTEGRATING SPEECH ENGINE WITH WEB NAVIGATOR

Abstract:
Finding information on the web is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Fortunately there
are stating points one can use. Tools are also available to help perform searches for specific
data. It is the browser that helps communicate with the Internet world. A browser is a
program that takes input as a page requested; interprets the text, formats the commands
that the text contains, and displays the page properly formatted on the screen.
Web server serves static content to a web browser at a basic level. This means that the web
server receives a request for a web page as requested through the browser. The web server
is also called HTTP server because it responds to HTTP request. Web server allows you to
serve contents over the Internet using the Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) and returns
the appropriate HTML document.
Speech technology is becoming increasingly important in both personal and enterprise
computing human interaction with computer. Speech technology allows hands free use
of computers and supports access to computing capabilities away from the desk over the
telephone.
Speech recognition and speech synthesis can improve computing accessibility for users with
disabilities and can reduce the risk of repetitive strain injury and other problems caused
by current interface. Voice Enabled Browser is one that performs all the activities of the
Browser and includes the advanced technology mentioned above to have a fast and easy
operation of Internet.
Our project aims at developing a Web Navigator and incorporating basic functions into it.
After having done this, linking the browser to a speech engine namely IBM Via Voice.

The modules identified in this project are:
Browser Window
Browser Events
Address verify and maintain favourates
