Abstract

A computing device may compare a voice command to a customized voiceprint of a user. The computing device may, if a result of the comparison exceeds a threshold, determine the voice command matches the voiceprint, determine a security level associated with the voice command, generate a signal comprising an audible announcement, access website related information, and utilize customized user settings.

Claims (20)

1. A computing device comprising:

a microphone configured to receive an auditory signal comprising a voice command;

a processor configured to:

process the auditory signal based on a determined proximity to a portable radio device, wherein the proximity is determined based on a radio frequency (RF) signal received by the computing device from the portable radio device; and

compare the voice command to a customized voiceprint of a user, and on a condition that a result of the comparison exceeds a threshold, determine the voice command matches the voiceprint, determine a security level associated with the voice command, generate a signal comprising an audible announcement, access website related information, and utilize customized user settings.

2. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the voice command includes a password, includes a security code, or includes an identification code.

3. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the voice command is stored locally in a memory device.

4. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the voice command is utilized to log the user in and out.

5. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the proximity is determined based on a bluetooth signal.

6. The computing device of claim 1 , wherein the audible announcement is a confirmation.

7. A method performed by a computing device, the method comprising:

receiving, by a microphone of the computing device, an auditory signal comprising a voice command;

processing, by the computing device, the auditory signal based on a determined proximity to a portable radio device, wherein the proximity is determined based on a radio frequency (RF) signal received by the computing device from the portable radio device;

comparing the voice command to a customized voiceprint of a user; and

on a condition that a result of the comparison exceeds a threshold, determining the voice command matches the voiceprint, determining a security level associated with the voice command, generating a signal comprising an audible announcement, accessing website related information, and utilizing customized user settings.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the voice command includes a password, includes a security code, or includes an identification code.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the voice command is stored locally in a memory device.

10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the voice command is utilized to log the user in and out.

11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the proximity is determined based on a bluetooth signal.

12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the audible announcement is a confirmation.
