Another small company is bought by Apple, Why?


Novauris is a small company most of us have never heard about. Yet this not so known, small company was recently bought by one of the big dogs,  Apple.
Now the natural question is why? What makes it so appealing to Apple, which doesn't normally buy companies for no reason.
Novauris specializes in speech recognition and has ties to the technology and patents underpinning Siri. According to TechCrunch it's experts are already working with Apple to improve it's voice assistant. The are only speculations though. Nothing is certtain. One of Novauris features and strong points has been locally-processed recognition. This would make Siri independent from data connection. It wouldn't rely anymore on distant servers. This is something that to this day no voice has succeeded on.
Again these are just rumors. There are no official statements have been issued from either Apple or Novauris.
