INTERACTIVE VOICE RESPONSE SYSTEM FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION

The Interactive Voice Response (IVR) System serves as a bridge between people and computer databases by connecting the cellphone network with the database. The cellphone user can access the information from anywhere at anytime simply by dialing a specified number and following an on-line instruction when a connection has been established. The IVR system uses pre-recorded or computer generated voice responses to provide information in response to an input from a cellphone caller. The input may be given by means of touch-tone or Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signal, which is generated when a caller presses a key of his/her cellphone set, and the sequence of messages to be played is determined dynamically according to an internal menu structure (maintained within the IVR application program) and the user input. The IVRS system which will be designed will provide an ideal platform for the operation of start-ups and existing small concerns. It will be a highly economical and efficient. The IVRS system which will be designed will consist of simple components like microcontroller and some basic application chips interfaced to a PC which will have small software running in the backend while the other jobs are performed on the front end
