US Patent 7280849 Voice activated dialing for wireless headsets

A wearable wireless telecommunications headset may include at least a microphone, a speaker, a transceiver, a processor and a memory. The headset processes audio commands from a user, recognizing the commands and executing them appropriately. The headset communicates with multiple communication devices, answering incoming communications from any devices in range and announcing identity information about an initiator of the communication, as well as initiating outgoing communications by recognizing a spoken communications address, or recognizing and looking up a spoken name in a locally or remotely stored address book.
