The aim of this article is to present a demonstrative Web application with Romanian language continuous speech recognition based multimodal interface. The scope of the paper also includes the presentation and testing of the capabilities of a context dependent grapheme based acoustic model for the Romanian language. The article describes the system architecture, the Web application development and the speech database used for the acoustic feature vector construction and acoustic model training. Further the task grammar is presented. At the end recognition results are presented in both offline and online operating mode. The used speech corpora together with the transcriptions are freely available for academic use on the NaviRo project website: http://users.utcluj.ro/~jdomokos/naviro/.
