A cell phone running speech-recognition software might need roughly 1 watt of power, but the new chip requires between 0.2 and 10 milliwatts only, based on the number of words it has to recognize.<\/p>\n<p>In a real-world application, that potentially means a power savings of 90 to 99%, which could make voice control feasible for moderately simple electronic devices. That includes power-constrained gadgets that have to go months between battery charges or extract energy from their environments.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Link: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.azorobotics.com\/News.aspx?newsID=8983\">http:\/\/www.azorobotics.com\/News.aspx?newsID=8983<\/a> --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Personally; I see this not being needed in less than 10 years.
