Real-Time Voice Recognition CAT

(computer-aided transcription)

• a method whereby a court reporter records evidence using Voice Recognition software running on a laptop computer

The reporter will recite every word to be on the record into a mask while also utilizing a sophisticated hardware and software system to produce transcripts of proceedings at a phenomenal rate of speed and accuracy.  The transcript is produced on the fly and only needs to be quickly proofread and formatted – instead of typed.    The reporter is also making a digital recording of the live room at the same time for a backup.   We leave nothing to chance.

As with any other computer technology, voice recognition has grown leaps and bounds over the years. This advancement has allowed for a significant increase in efficiency for the Professional Reporter.

The company behind this technology is AudioScribe Corp., the first company to develop voice recognition for court reporters.   The voice recognition engine used in this advanced system is none other than Nuance’s Dragon NaturallySpeaking^TM
