Voice Recognition Software For Windows
An introduction to the main voice recognition packages for Windows.
More about voice recognition
Although there is voice recognition software built into Office XP, there are also several widely used packages for sale that offer excellent accuracy and even complete 'hands-free' use . For example Dragon Naturally Speaking Voice Recognition and IBM's ViaVoice Software. This is a very powerful option for those who are not able to use a physical keyboard or mouse, or just want to speed up their text input
The systems take time to "train" to recognise the speaker, but with practice it is possible to input text at a rate in excess of the fastest typist. More recently these systems have become much more affordable.
