Speech Processing Solutions: Philips SpeechMike Premium Gets Highest Nuance 'Dragon Score' Rating


Nov 09, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Speech Processing Solutions, a provider of professional dictation systems, announced that the Philips SpeechMike Premium received a perfect score of six dragons on Nuance Communication's latest recording accuracy test.



According to a release, Nuance ranks which dictation devices are most compatible with the latest version of the Dragon Naturally Speaking speech recognition software.

Through the test, which compared several brands of dictation microphones, the SpeechMike Premium proved superior to competitors for voice recognition accuracy when integrated with Nuance's speech recognition software. In addition, the device was awarded perfect scores for the microphone quality and clarity and for accuracy for USB microphones.


"Nuance Communications' recognition of the SpeechMike Premium is a great honor and a testament to our position as a global leader in audio competence and voice technologies," says Thomas Brauner, President and CEO of Speech Processing Solutions. "The SpeechMike Premium, along with our entire professional line, continues to lead the market by developing future proof technology that provides the most accurate, clear recordings for medical practitioners, lawyers and other professionals who use speech recognition to improve workflow processes and achieve faster document turnaround times." The SpeechMike Premium leverages a new precision microphone, which is completely redesigned for absolutely clear recordings, the company said. The microphone is decoupled from the device and has a unique microphone grill for superior speech recognition results. In addition, an integrated motion sensor allows users to control the start and stop of recordings with hand movements.
