The company's RS/Series family of products has been installed at thousands of sites around the world, and BBN/Clintrial and BBN/ClinTRACE have become the industry standard for clinical trials data management and analysis software for pharmaceutical and biotech companies. In May 1993, the company introduced BBN/Cornerstone, a client/server data analysis product running on standard workstations, and in July 1994 BBN/Probe was added to the family of products, giving users the ability to analyze complex time-series data from any source, in any format.
BBN's newest commerical venture (formed in 1994) is based on the HARK Recognizer, a speaker-independent speech recognition system that is totally software-based and uses a standard audio interface. It can recognize, independent of the speaker, over several thousand words spoken in a natural, continuous way. It can thus make hands-free operation possible for a wide range of applications.
A demonstration of Hark technology being
used to route incoming calls to BBN is available.
