Product Description: 

Supplemented Speech Recognition is designed for people who are unable to use off-the-shelf speech recognition software because their speech or breathing isn't typical. SSR tightly integrates word prediction and speech recognition to significantly reduce the amount of typing required to enter text. Research demonstrated that, even for people with very poor speech, typing requirements were reduced by 65% or more.

Main Features: 

  • SSR uses the first letter of a word to significantly reduce the number of words possible at a given location in a sentence. This makes it easier to perform speech recognition and also enables a larger overall speech recognition vocabulary.
  • It provides a clear cue for when to speak (e.g. shortly after typing the first letter), making respiratory planning easier for people with a severe disability.
  • It reduces co-articulation among words, making speech easier to understand.
  • SSR learns new words as the users say them, so it becomes fine-tuned to the way that the users write and the way they speak. With use, the system significantly reduces the amount of typing that the users have to do.
  • The toolbar is the complete user interface. It sits at the top of a computer screen and ensures that other applications don't get behind it. SSR monitors the words it knows and whether it gets them right. It lets the user know when it is time to run the speech optimization software to reduce errors.
  • SSR comes complete with a desktop microphone and USB speech processing module.

Primary Specifications: 

  • Compatible with: Windows 7 or 8 operating system.
