Eland Technologies partners with Voxpilot

Eland Technologies has selected Voxpilot's Voice XML gateway and pan-European VSP services to voice-enable its Travel Application Integration platform "Runway".

Irish company Eland is a provider of legacy integration middleware to the travel industry.

Its call centre applications, online booking engines, automatic flight tracking and other bespoke and off-the shelf applications are used by airlines and airline alliances throughout the world.

Voxpilot's VoiceXML and Voice-0ver-IP technology will be used in Eland's FlightMinder and eTravelLight technologies.

This should add voice capability to existing web interfaces. Airline customers and staff should be able to use their voice to request flight status, availability and pricing information for any airline in the world.
