Apple’s sensational virtual voice assistant Siri created ripples in the tech-world and after gaining inspiration from that incredible technology, many tech-giants began exploring the possibility to further develop this intuitive-based technology.
It appears that famous Blackberry maker RIM, too don’t want to lag behind in the race of offering intuitive based technology and if latest reports are to be believed then recently released Blackberry 10 dev alpha toolkit not only includes new API’s key sets and a brand new Vendor Portal on BlackBerry App World™ for BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha test devices but also includes a Siri Like Voice Commands on BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha.
Latest BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha Update which now features a Siri-like virtual voice assistant will certainly make RIM’s new BB 10 platform more sophisticated.
Though RIM, always had inbuilt voice control features in BB smarphones but it never tried to explore more avenues regarding the same. Now when Apple was successful in developing this technology, it becomes important for RIM as well to incorporate as many as cutting edge technologies in its upcoming BB 10 smartphones.
When this update was released by RIM to the BB10 Dev Alpha then few developers were fortunate enough to get their hands on the features offered by this new update while few experienced some troubles during installing Latest BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha Update.
Developers instantly made out a striking resemblance between Apple’s virtual assistant Siri and new update’s voice command feature which contains an operator voice. A virtual voice assistant basically comes in handy when a user has to look out for global search feature. Nevertheless, this new Siri like feature is still in its initial phase since it is in Beta version but Developers have enough time to further develop this feature.
Considering a fact that RIM is currently in dire straits and only above par BB 10 platform can infuse new lease of life in this Ontario- based leading tech-giant, it becomes important for RIM to understand that incorporating latest available cutting edge technology in BB 10 platform won’t suffice. RIM needs to go to extra length by further exploring distinctive possibilities in intuitive based technology. After all sometimes it is just about going to extra length which makes all the difference.
