In this paper, we first briefly introduce voice input applications which we have developed during the last ten years. Then, after the discussion of some applications to social-automation systems, problems concerning the speech recognition capabilities and the user-system interaction facilities in practical environments are pointed out. Next, we describe a real-time multimodal dialogue system' which has been newly developed to overcome these problems. The system provides multiple input channels of spontaneous speech and touch, as well as multiple output channels of graphics and voice responses. The system also provides three sensors to detect the user's behavior and to plan interactive strategies. The experimental results using a map-guidance task are also discussed.
