Come out of being a text book engineer and do what's never been done. Face the challenges that the real world has in store for you. Approach, attack and conquer them and emerge the winner in the game of survival in the digital age. Excel X and Xtend Technologies presents TELE CODER - something unheard of in technical festivals. Welcome to this all unique Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) coding event !!!

Submission for the event ends on December 12th 2009.

Interactive Voice Response is an interactive technology that allows a computer to detect voice and keypad inputs. An IVR allows customers to access a company’s database via a telephone touchtone keypad or by speech recognition, after which they can service their own enquiries by following the instructions. IVR systems can respond with pre-recorded or dynamically generated audio to further direct users on how to proceed. IVR systems can be used to control almost any function where the interface can be broken down into a series of simple menu choices.

The following are some of the more common uses of an IVR:

  • Mobile (Pay as you go Top up)
  • Telephone Banking (Balance, payments, and transfers)
  • Mobile Purchases (particularly for mobile content, such as ringtones and logos)
  • Caller identification and routing
  • Order Placements (Credit Card Payments)
  • Airline (Ticket booking, Flight arrivals, Flight departures, Checkin)
  • Weather forecasts
