- Another interesting thing you could do is supply FrameMaker commands
- by voice. I've been playing around with a demo of IN3 Voice Command,
- and I was extremely surprised at how accurate the recognition
- capabilities are. The demo only allows you to define a limited lexicon
- (like page up and down, paragraph catalog, etc.), but the full blown
- package allows you to define whatever commands you want.
-
- I have no idea how much adding a huge lexicon impacts the performance
- of the system.
-
- You need a SPARC with OpenWindows 3.0 to run the demo. I'm using the
- mike that came with my Sun to run the demo, but Command Corp. recommends
- getting a better mike for heavy usage of the full blown package.
-
- Anyway, the demo is free, and it's an interesting idea. Of course, the
- downside is, everyone who passes your office while you are using it
- thinks you are completely insane.
