iVoice was conceptualised by SMRT and the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT), leveraging SMRT's problem statement and SIT's operational technology know-how.

By combining with the multi-domain Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) expertise of I²R, this collaborative effort led to the development of iVoice, aimed at enhancing productivity and improving safety compliance in the rail transport sector.
