Dragon is More Effective Speech-to-Text

photo dragon-is-more-effective-speech-to-text.jpgA main intent behind developing technology has always been to make things faster and easier, and voice recognition is a great step forward in doing just that.  Dragon is a product from Nuance, a leading provider of cutting-edge voice and gesture recognition technology, applying voice recognition to aid in many different functions.  It gives you quick access to everything you want on the mobile web, and its revolutionary software not only hears but understands what you want more accurately and swiftly than previous versions of the technology.  Consumers can download it to a variety of devices including phones, tablets and televisions.  Dragon serves four functions in particular: speech-to-text, email, online search, and app access.

Dragon Go gives you one-app access to anything you could hope to find online on your mobile device. You simply say what you want and Dragon Go helps you find it fast.  A search for Mexican or Chinese food will take you to yelp reviews of those types of restaurants specifically.  You can also access Twitter to see what places of interest people are tweeting about, and you can then either view a map, call the restaurant you want, or have the app make a reservation for you with a single touch.  While you can search the Internet for a band and immediately see relevant search results, Dragon goes a step further and brings up tabs to relevant pages such as Wikipedia or YouTube that you can access with a single touch.  Mobile tech support features make it especially ideal for iOS devices, and the app even integrates with iTunes to let you search artists or songs without typing.

Dragon Dictation allows you to dictate anything so that simply by speaking, you can see your text content and send it anywhere. It gives you the flexibility to dictate for any situation whether messaging, blogging, or anything of the like.  You can speak your tweets and social media status updates, easily dictate personal notes and reminders, or copy notes to the clipboard to use anywhere with your iOS device.  Dragon dictation allows truly hands-free text input, which is perfect when using your mobile device on the go.

There is not only application for iOS devices, but Dragon for email is now available on all BlackBerry devices.  With Dragon for email, you can speak and instantly see your emails by dictating directly within the BlackBerry email client.  It is fully integrated, and you can smoothly dictate not just the email body but the subject line and contact as well.  According to its developers, the Dragon for email client is up to 5 times faster than typing.  Only be sure to have computer support that can work with mobile devices to continue benefiting from the app’s remarkable service. Whatever function you choose to employ Dragon for, whether on your iOS device or Blackberry, it is sure to make things simpler and faster.
