A system and method for implementing a server-based speech recognition system for multimodal automated interaction in a vehicle includes receiving, by a vehicle driver, audio prompts by an on-board human-to-machine interface and a response with speech to complete tasks such as creating and sending text messages, web browsing, navigation, etc. This service-oriented architecture is utilized to call upon specialized speech recognizers in an adaptive fashion. The human-to-machine interface enables completion of a text input task while driving a vehicle in a way that minimizes the frequency of the driver's visual and mechanical interactions with the interface, thereby eliminating unsafe distractions during driving conditions. After the initial prompting, the typing task is followed by a computerized verbalization of the text. Subsequent interface steps can be visual in nature, or involve only sound.

The present invention provides mechanisms for removing duplicate signals during a communication session. More particularly an over-air signal is received at a given endpoint and a stream of electronic data is monitored at the same endpoint for a duplicate to the over-air signal. If a duplicate is detected in the electronic data stream, it is removed so that only one occurrence of the signal is received at the endpoint.
