Abstract
A system and method for processing user speech commands in a voice interactive system is disclosed. Users issue speech phrases on a local device in a premises network, and the local devices first determine if the speech phrases match any commands in a set of local control commands. The control commands, in examples, can activate and deactivate premises devices such as 'smart' televisions and simpler lighting devices connected to home automation hubs. In the event of a command match, local actions associated with the commands are executed directly on the premises devices in response. When no match is found on the local device, the speech phrases are sent in messages to a remote server over a network cloud such as the Internet for further processing. This can save on bandwidth and cost as compared to current voice recognition systems.
