Application ID: 14433263

Base Claim:
1. A mobile device adapted for automatic speech recognition (ASR) of speech input, the mobile device comprising: a local ASR arrangement configured to perform local ASR processing of the speech input including processing any speech recognition results received from a remote server; and a local controller configured to perform: sending the speech input to the local ASR arrangement; sending the speech input to the remote server for remote ASR processing; and after sending the speech input to the remote server, determining if a remote ASR processing condition is met, wherein the local controller determines if the remote ASR processing condition is met while the local ASR arrangement processes the speech input, and wherein local ASR recognition processes are suspended by the local ASR arrangement in response to the local controller determining that the remote ASR processing condition is met so that recognition results solely from the remote ASR processing are used to produce an output interpretation of the speech input.
