Question

speech to text

Answer 1

Unless u have access to a NASA program u will probably be disappointed with voice recognition software. You need a good program, an excellent microphone and clear speech. Then you "train" the software to recognize your words. Most times, though, what gets translated to text does not look at all like what you said.
And you have to do a lot of spelling corrections.
And the process is unbearably slow.
So, if you can still type...then type and forget the VR programs.

Here is an excerpt from MICROSOFT on Speech recognition with Windows XP:

Tapping into the speech recognition technology within Windows XP can be a little tricky, but after reading this, you'll be a pro.

The magic of speech recognition happens when three pieces come together. First, you need Windows XP Service Pack 1. Next, you'll need the Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine v5.0. Finally, you need an application that's ready to accept your speech input, these include Notepad, Outlook Express, and others in Windows XP.

There is no Speech Recognition Engine (SRE) built directly in to Windows XP. You need to install a compatible engine, and in most cases, you'll install it from one of two sources.
•

The Microsoft SRE for Windows XP is available in Office XP applications, such as Microsoft Word 2002, or Microsoft Excel 2002. If you have Office XP, or one of these programs on your computer, then you probably already have access to the SRE. You simply need to install the SRE as explained below.
•

If you do not have one of these programs, then a less expensive option for installing the SRE is to purchase the Windows XP PLUS! Pack. This is available for less than $30 from Microsoft and other online vendors.
•

A third option is available for advanced users. The SRE is provided for free as part of the Microsoft Speech Software Development Kit 5.1. Microsoft provides no technical support for this software and it is not generally recommended for end users.



Microphone is the most important component

Before you go any further, we need to take a minute or two to talk about the most important component in your Speech Recognition system: the microphone. You will need to get the right microphone for the job. This isn't very easy.

If you head on over to your local computer store, you'll see lots of headphones with microphones attached to them. Even the packaging says things like "Great for speech recognition." But this is generally not true, for multiple reasons.

First off, the quality of these microphones is questionable, which leads to decreased word recognition. More importantly, none of these microphones is "powered." Why is this important? Because either the microphone, or the sound card's microphone input must be powered or speech recognition won't work. Few sound cards have powered microphone inputs, and almost none of the microphones is powered. So, how do you know if your microphone is powered or not? First, check the package for a "batteries included" or "batteries required" notice. Or, you can get a USB microphone, the best way to go. These are usually powered. They're also Plug and Play, virtually guaranteeing success.

Once you have the microphone and the SRE software, you're ready to get started.
