The Windows 7 operating system is equipped with many options that give more and more capabilities to users of this system. They were able to introduce a very interesting function, which is called "speech recognition". But what is this system? This will be discussed.
The option in question allows you to use a completely new way of user interaction with a computer in applications of the entire system. It is the Windows 7 Speech Recognition system that allows you to control your computer without using a keyboard, mouse, or other means.
I would like to note that this innovation will be available in other Microsoft products. This feature was noticed a little earlier, that is, they tried to implement it in Windows Vista, but in the seventh version of the Microsoft operating system, voice control was performed at a higher level than its predecessor. Simply put, an option such as Windows 7 speech recognition has become even more functional.
In addition to all of the above, I want to note that it has a fairly wide range of applications. Windows 7 users with speech recognition have the ability to run programs and convert all sound fragments to text, execute all kinds of commands on the computer, using only their voice and the necessary devices. But what does it take to make Windows 7 speech recognition real?
First of all, you will need a microphone, which should be connected to a computer. In addition, you must purchase a special application or program that is published by the manufacturer, that is, Microsoft. After all the necessary components are installed and the microphone is connected to the computer, a further work plan should be implemented:
- You need to run test voice commands and convert them to text.
- After you train the recognition program, you will need to create templates for different teams with your voice. It is on the basis of this work that the computer will be able to receive and execute all the commands you set.
The Windows 7 speech recognition feature is used in Microsoft's WordPad text editor. It works flawlessly when filling out various forms, and also performs well in Internet Explorer and surfing the Internet.
In addition, this option will easily edit previously recorded text by defining special voice commands. Of course, in the process of recognizing a particular problem, typical errors occur (when erroneous recognition of certain sounds occurs). For this case, the program provides a list of correspondences of certain words.
The function, of course, is phenomenal, but still there is one “but”. The thing is that recognition of Russian speech is now, in principle, unavailable. There are excellent versions of the program for English, French, German and Japanese. There are also versions for Chinese, Spanish and Italian speech.
But this new product is not quite adapted for Russian speech. Your computer will not be able to perceive the tasks assigned to it, which means that it will be easier for you to write something using the keyboard or to perform certain tasks with the mouse.
Of course, you can try to work with similar Russian-language programs or give your preference to the English language, but you can still hope that soon the speech recognition in Russian will also be available in high-quality mode. And just then you can try out in practice such a unique function. Indeed, it, without a doubt, clearly simplifies the work on a personal computer and is a huge breakthrough in the field of programming. So all that remains is to wait.
