Interactive Voice Respond (IVR) Application for Android Based Mobile

Abstract

Modern hand held devices such as smart phones and PDAs have become increasingly powerful in recent years. Dramatic breakthrough in processing power along with the number of extra features included in these devices has opened the doors to a wide range of commercial possibilities. In particular, most mobile devices regularly include cameras, processors comparable to PCs from only a few years ago, and the Internet access. However, even with all these added abilities, there are few applications that allow much handling and manipulate call through Interactive Voice Response based service. As mobile devices become more like PCs they will come to replace objects we tend to carry around such as cheqe books, credit cards, cameras, planners, mp3 players, etc. In short, we will be using them to accomplish our daily tasks. Most of the time the person who is using this smart hand held device may be busy with other work. For the scenario like driving with mobile phone or answering to phone call within the meeting is difficult for the user. The prime objective of “Interactive Voice Respond application for the Android based Mobile” is the application to overcome this scenario. The Project is developed in Java Programming Language by using the Eclipse Ganymede Integrated Development Environment (IDE). We use the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) which includes a variety of custom tools that help us develop mobile applications on the Android platform. The most important of these are the Android Emulator and the Android Development Tools (ADT) plug-in for Eclipse. Project outcome is the Application widget. This widget can handle call through SMS. The main objective of this project is handle calls by using Interactive Voice Responder application. Due to the limitations and security features of the Android operating system, the widget can handle calls by Short Message.
