Win8 system voice control function

How to activate speech recognition

First, the user needs to prepare a laptop and a microphone. The Windows 8 speech recognition program can support any type of microphone, even a loudspeaker built into the user's notebook. However, Microsoft said that microphones with a price of around $20 are the best.

The easiest way to activate speech recognition is to open the "Start& rdquo; (Start) interface, enter “speech" (Speech), in the search results, click “Windows Speech Recognition" Speech Recognition). When you open the program for the first time, you will enter the "tutorial/introduction" mode. The user then quickly launches and runs “Windows Speech Recognition” according to the prompts on the screen. This will cause the speech recognition template to appear at the top of the display. Click on the microphone icon and it will turn blue, then you can accept the user "voice command".

The voice commands described above are suitable for clicking on the icons that appear on the screen, and they work well. But how do you “drag and drop” the icons on the screen?

For example, when the user says “Mousegrid”, a large 3 x 3 square is added to the screen. There are 9 squares, and both are numbered 1-9.

When you say, "5“, there will be a smaller 3 x 3 square in the fifth square. In this way, you can continue to "refine" the squares in this way until you lock the target on the screen.
