Talking To Your TV, Your Car, Maybe Your Fridge?

You might remember Maluuba from TechCrunch Disrupt, where the company launched its Personal Assistant app for Android last year, combining voice recognition and natural language processing with search to create a really smart way to easily find the things you want quickly. If you’ve already forgotten: It’s kind of like Siri, except it works.

Anyway, the company has been busy over the last few months — it’s been making updates to its Android application, including the addition of a shopping category, which allows users to ask about the prices of various products and where to find them. And later this month, it plans to launch a Windows Phone app using the same technology, the founders told me in a video interview at CES today.

Speaking of which, they’re at the show exploring the next group of devices that might benefit from a fast, smart search technology powered by voice recognition and natural language processing. That could include TVs — where a number of OEMs are already experimenting with voice control and navigation — as well as cars.
