What was that tune? It goes like this: "Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm." Imagine being able to track down that elusive tune in your head by singing or humming it. With midomi mobile on your S60 3rd Edition device, you can soon not only know the tune, but also be able to hear renditions of the song submitted by midomi.com's many other users and contributors. After analyzing the pitch, melody, rhythm, speech, and other features that make up your rendition of a song, midomi compares them to those measurements in a database of hundreds of thousands of tunes that have been sung and submitted by other users. The artificial intelligence (AI) software finds the correct matches 95 percent of the time if the correct song is in the database. It even does so when you have to sing or hum the tune softly into your S60 device so as not to disturb the person in the next cubicle at work or at a neighboring table in a restaurant.
The ever-growing midomi database already is the world's largest database of searchable music of its kind. To date, it includes songs sung in 33 different languages. The midomi.com Web interface is available in 10 languages: English, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, Italian, French, Polish, German, Portuguese, and Korean. Thanks to midomi's enhanced voice and text communication tools, users can post messages, notes, and comments to each other in both voice and text form and take advantage of a number of other social-networking and community features. An embedded search widget enables users and Webmasters to add midomi's voice-search widget to other Web sites or social network. For more information, visit http://mobile.midomi.com.
