February 28, 2007 (Press Release) --
Nuance Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: NUAN), a leading provider of speech and imaging solutions, today unveiled a breakthrough speech technology to deliver mobile access to hospital information systems. Voice Control Healthcare Edition delivers immediate access to remote healthcare information from smartphones and handheld devices. Voice Control Healthcare Edition marks the first vertically focused technology of Nuance Voice Control, a mobile search and messaging service that has surpassed one million transactions in consumer markets.
Voice Control Healthcare Edition, currently being developed with Sprint (NYSE: S), allows providers to instantly access clinical information from their existing healthcare information system via a Sprint handheld device using simple voice commands.
