Dragon Professional

Description

Dragon Professional works through speech recognition software with "deep learning" techniques, automatically typing out the spoken text. In addition, the computer can also be controlled quickly and accurately through simple voice commands.

For whom and why

The software can be a support for individuals with dyslexia but is also useful for other students and tutors. Professional offers a faster and easier way to work on the PC because one controls the computer by voice, which can also be supportive for students with visual impairments. Words appear on the screen three times faster than typing them and without spelling errors.

How does it work

  • Dictate and transcribe | Dictate what needs to be written down or give the computer voice commands like "open Microsoft Word. With Deep Learning technology, Dragon adapts to your voice or environment, even while you're dictating. Quickly and accurately create documents such as reports, e-mail messages, forms and notes by voice.
  • Accuracy | Dragon remembers frequently used words and phrases so fewer corrections are needed. You can dictate quickly and work more accurately as the program continues to adapt to your voice. It's also particularly accurate for users with accents or in noisy environments, such as an office courtyard. Text formatting, such as bold or underline, can be applied using your voice. You can also add customized words for accurate recognition of subject-specific concepts, abbreviations and terms you use every day.
