The mobile device includes a client that has a number of modules, and the MMR Gateway and MMR matching unit are implemented as a server that has a number of modules. The implementation of the MMR system as a client and a server is advantageous because the modules may be distributed among the client and the server in a variety of configurations. The present invention includes a capture module, a preprocessing module, a feature extraction module, a retrieval module, a send message module, an action module, a prediction module, a feedback module, a sending module, an MMR database, a streaming module, an e-mail module, a voice recognition system and an audio database. These modules and systems are operational upon the client or the server. In one embodiment, the client includes only the capture module with the remaining modules operational on the server. In a second embodiment, the server includes the action module with the remaining modules operational on the client.
