Voice Recognition is an interface methodology wherein a system recognizes spoken language. The machine or software may take the spoken language as input and translate it into written text depending on which, any function or command given to it is executed. Voice recognition applications include voice user interfaces such as voice dialing (e.g., "Call John"), call routing (e.g., "I would like to make a collect call"), simple data entry and Speech to text processing.
The video shows a voice activated lift which goes to the the specified floor upon getting a voice input.
It shows the height of frustration one can get if the system is not precise enough to detect voice signals.
Although the Voice Recognition (VR) is an advanced HCI Why is it not popular?
- A basic example of VR technology is the voice dialing feature in a mobile phone. But there are a very few people who use this. This is because that any common man prefers a visual interface rover a voice interface.
- Voice recognition devices are good for people who are physically challenged and need to use it because they either have trouble using their hands or good eyesight to push the keypads on the telephone.
- Coming to the video, Although there are huge shifts in technological advancements each day, Installing a voice recognition technology in a lift is something which is not required.
For ex : A very simple and elegant lift button panel where
0 denotes Ground floor
1 denotes Level 1 and so on .
But what if the panel looks something like this ?
An appropriate solution will be installing a Touch Screen interface where in the user can enter the floor number where he needs to go. An interface similar to that of an ATM machine .
