Pizza Hut orders voice recognition with the lot
Summary
Instead of pushing buttons on the phone keypad or waiting for a human operator, customers will be able to order pizzas and other items by speaking to the computer. Other local organizations using VeCommerce systems include most state TABs, the Australian Tax Office and the NSW Motor Accidents Authority.
The Pizza Hut system, expected to cost around $2 million depending on the level of use, should be active by the second quarter of this year. According to VeCommerce, it will be the world's first voice-enabled pizza ordering facility. --Stephen Withers, ZDNet Australia
