Nuance Speaks Up for Speech Recognition with Live Demonstrations of Dragon NaturallySpeaking v9.World's Leading Speech Recognition Solution Delivers Up to 99% Accuracy; Live Demonstrations, Software Trials Show State-of-the-Art Following Microsoft Vista See Windows Vista. Demo
Overview: Microsoft's (Nasdaq: MSFT) recent demonstration of
its speech recognition capabilities in Windows Vista has
generated significant coverage in the media and
blog-sphere, leaving many observers with the impression
that speech recognition is not "ready for prime-time" - to
say the least.
Those familiar with the state-of-the art and with Nuance
Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: NUAN), a leading provider of
speech and imaging solutions, recognize that Dragon
NaturallySpeaking from Nuance already delivers amazing
levels of accuracy in a wide range of environments,
including emergency rooms, noisy offices and even
auditoriums.
While Nuance cannot speak for the quality of the speech
recognition that might eventually be delivered with
Microsoft Vista, Nuance does not want the unflattering
Microsoft demo to speak for state-of-the-art of speech
recognition as a whole.
Nuance's Dragon NaturallySpeaking today is used by
millions of people to transform the way that they use
their PCs. Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9, unveiled to broad
acclaim on July 18, 2006, delivers what matters most in
speech recognition - failsafe accuracy with levels up to
99% - and eliminates the need to voice-train the product
and still deliver extremely high levels of performance.
Details: Nuance executives and technology experts are
available to demonstrate Dragon NaturallySpeaking and to
provide expert commentary on the state-of-the-art of
speech recognition. In addition, trial software can be
made available to interested parties upon request. Users
of Dragon NaturallySpeaking - including doctors, those
with disabilities and office professionals - can also be
made available.
The latest release of Dragon NaturallySpeaking comes from
the world's expert in speech recognition - Nuance. Nuance
speech technology touches millions of people every day as
they use speech recognition to make requests of directory
assistant services, interact with their bank or airline
reservation system by voice, dial by voice from their cell
phone, or interact with their car's navigation and
environmental systems.
