CUPERTINO, CALIF. – October 23, 2006 – Mvox announced that its recently introduced Mvox Duo™, the world's first wearable Smart Communicator™
The Mvox Duo, an advanced hands-free Bluetooth and USB communicator with one-touch voice dialing, made its debut at DEMOfall ’06.
Keith Shaw of NetworkWorld awarded Mvox in the Cool Tools Videocast with, “Best Appeal to the Geek in All of Us.”
Shaw commented during the video, “Now the first thing you think of when you hear communicator is of course, Star Trek – especially since they were wearing it on their chest. They (Mvox) took it and ran with it, with great costumes!”
"Mvox's use of Star Trek for the launch of its new voice-controlled Duo Smart Communicator was definitely one of the Top 5 Demo Moments. The Mvox Duo is as close as you can get to 'Next Generation' technology,"
The tiny Mvox Duo Smart Communicator is an all-in-one, wearable communications platform, which combines a cellphone headset, VoIP headset/speakerphone, hands-free car kit, and a mobile conference phone.
In order to communicate via cell and VoIP, mobile professionals need to juggle a combination of wired or wireless devices, which in most cases provide underwhelming performance and an overall frustrating experience. The Mvox Duo eliminates the device clutter with an all-in-one headset and speakerphone combo, which features on-device intelligence with dramatic improvements on the hands-free calling interface.
The Mvox Duo features one-touch intelligent voice-dialing for simplifying inbound/outbound calling and also helps users keep their eyes on the road and hands on the wheel while driving. The Mvox Duo offers industry-first features, including:
• A wearable speakerphone/
• Near 100% voice recognition rate powered by extremely accurate speech recognition algorithms
• Superior noise and echo cancellation through patent-pending small array microphone (SAM) technology. Two small array microphones create a unique three-dimensional voice cone, which grabs the speaker's voice clearly, improves voice recognition, and blocks out background noises and echoes
The Mvox Duo fits comfortably over the ear for private conversations and can instantly convert into a high-performance speakerphone for on-the-spot mobile conference calls. It attaches to a collar or lapel, worn around the neck with the included neck trap, placed on the table top, or clipped to a seatbelt.
The Duo can also connect to a PC via USB or Bluetooth as a speakerphone or headset for VoIP applications, including AOL, Avaya, SKYPE, Yahoo, Gizmo Project, and Gtalk.
An integral part of the Mvox Duo wearable platform is the Mvox Wizard™ software, which simplifies, optimizes, and personalizes user experience. It walks users through pairing the Duo with their phone, and creates and manages their contact list.
