چکیده

In this paper we describe SARA Singapore’s Automated Responsive Assistance – an Android mobile phone application for touristic information in Singapore. The application provides information about local attractions, restaurants, sightseeing direction and transportation services. Using a GPS integrated module SARA is able to detect the user’s location on a map providing orientation and direction help. Users can use speech, text or scanned QR code to interact with SARA. Input/output modalities for SARA include natural language in form of text or speech. A short video about the main features of our Android application can be seen here: http://vimeo.com/91620644. Currently, SARA supports only English, but we are working towards a multi-lingual support. For test purposes we created a web version of SARA that can be tested for Chinese and English text input at: http://iris.i2r.astar.edu.sg/StatTour/.
