Speech Recognition
Speak & See Suite contains a simple and effective tool that allows the user to speak to the PC and see the words appear on the screen. Powered by Dragon NaturallySpeaking, the best selling speech recognition software, it is the most natural way for a user to communicate with a PC without having to type. Dragon NaturallySpeaking is a real timesaver. Studies show that most people speak over 120 words per minute but type less than 40 words per minute. This means that, with Dragon NaturallySpeaking, they can create documents and email messages up to three times faster than by simply using their voice.
Reading and Writing Support Toolbar
Anyone who has difficulty reading or writing – because of dyslexia, for example – will find this a highly useful software tool. It makes any text more accessible, by converting it to speech as it is being read or written and delivering it in a human-sounding voice
Screen Magnifier and Reader
Magnifying the entire screen or a selected area – by up to 6 times – this tool is ideal for anyone with visual impairment. It also includes full speech feedback for most text-based word processing tasks, including editing documents in Microsoft Word, WordPad and Notepad.
Reading Ruler
The horizontal highlighting and magnifying band of the Reading Ruler makes it easier to see and concentrate on text or objects on screen. Items within the band can be magnified and have their contrast changed; the area outside the band can also be greyed or dimmed.
Colour Overlay
Some PC users find the screen difficult to browse or read. By changing the colour of the screen ‘overlay’ and varying the level of tint, this tool can provide a clearer view.
Language Learning Assistant
When English is not someone’s first language, the only way they can be sure of pronunciation is to hear the spoken words – particularly when one spelling can have two different pronunciations and meanings, depending on context. This tool speaks text aloud in high-quality voices and includes bilingual dictionaries in many languages.
