Improving Speech Recognition

Environmental Noise

Since Articulate relies heavily on the input from the microphone, removing extra input such as music, white noise (such as a fan), and other noises not coming from you can help.

Train your computer to recognize your speech

Training the Microsoft speech recognizer is the best way to improve the recognition in Articulate. Remember that since Articulate is very new that not much time has been put in to improve our end of recognition. Further improvements in our software will help greatly.
