Dragon Version 10:
Version 10 promises to be the most accurate release to date offering increased flexibility, usability and speed.
The lag time between dictation and text appearing on screen has been noticeably reduced. Anyone with the tendency to pause and wait to watch the dictation transcribe on screen will find their productivity increase significantly.
As ever, improvements have been made to accuracy, but alternations to the DragonBar and Natural Commands ensure the user has a better experience when it comes to functionality and ease of dictation to control applications. The range of shortcut commands for use in email, calendar and for internet and desktop searching make application control much quicker and easier than former releases.
Key Features:
Accuracy:
Version 10 is the most accurate release to date. An expanded language module ad improved accuracy means users can expect to achieve 99% accuracy. Continuous acoustic adaptation ensures that even without correction, the software leans from and adapts with use.
Productivity & Speed:
Most people speak more than 120 words per minute but type fewer than 40. Create documents, emails and reports three times faster using speech recognition. Dragon version 10 has a response time faster than ever before as the result of a reduced time lag between dictation and text appearing on screen. This vastly improves productivity for anyone with a tendency to pause until text has been pasted before continuing with dictation!
Easy to Use:
Prior voice enrollment is no longer a necessity allowing the immediate creation of a voice profile. Improved help systems and tutorials have been included whilst a visible green or grey tool bar indicator helps in identifying those programmes already fully compatible with the software and those that may require adaptation i.e. those where the ‘select and say’ commands are fully supported. New graphical icons enhance the DragonBar user interface
Text to Speech:
Have emails and documents read back to you via Dragon RealSpeak 2 to aid checking and amending
Avoid RSI:
In using speech to control the PC you reduce exposure to repetitive strain injuries. If you suffer arthritis or carpel tunnel syndrome, Dragon will change the way you use the computer.

Dictate into, edit and control virtually any Windows application including the full Microsoft Office Suite, Internet Explorer, Corel and WordPerfect
