Anyone using an asterisk setup with voice recog for IVR menus?
I'm toying with the idea of using an IVR (interactive voice response) setup to handle kids phone calls. Several kids in the neighborhood have similar cell phone watches (LG Gizmo Gadgets on Verizon). These are basically LTE dumb phones built into a watch. They're limited to 10 phone numbers, which makes for some hassles trying to let them call each other. With mom, dad, the grandparents, etc, there's not a lot left for friends. They're speakerphones and have no dial pad features. It's basically, select a number and call it, or accept a call from among the 10 on the list. That's it.
I'm noodling with the idea of setting up an asterisk PBX with voice recog for prompts. Kid can call the PBX and then use voice prompts to call another kid on the list. With a limit set of duration of calls so they don't run into problems. No doubt there's a ton of ways to screw this up or abuse it, but I'd like to give it a shot. I'd be using a SIP provider to handle multiple simultaneous calls (I've not yet looked into this).
