ABSTRACT:
The invention is a software driven methodology plus input processing circuit used to program a computer with instructions derived from user-spoken voice commands. Any "mathematical" or "logical" operation or combination of operations can be executed by a single user-spoken voice command. The hardware and software has two modes of operation, a training mode and an execute mode. In its training mode, the hardware is taught to correlate a specific operation or instruction displayed to the user, with his voice command. In its execution mode the software permits comparison of digital representations of received voice sounds with the stored digital representations of the voice commands. If the received sounds match one of the stored commands, the software creates the corresponding operations of the matched commands to be sent to the output circuitry for execution. The output circuitry similarly, translates the corresponding operations recalled by the software, into the proper analog, digital, or hybrid signals together with proper timing, etc., appropriate to the application of the invention, and performs the function requested.
