Question

_________ enables people to control software with spoken commands, as well as dictate text into a word processing document.

Answer 1

Speech or voice recognition

Step-by-step explanation:

With speech or voice recognition, users are able to input commands into a device and/or operate a device (or application software) without the use of keyboards or mice. The way this is done is through the use of spoken words. The spoken words are converted into commands that are readable to the machine. This concept helps to reduce the need to type, click or select items on the device before issuing commands to it.

Examples of applications that use speech recognition are;

i. Gboard, for android and iOS users

ii. Windows 10 Speech Recognition, for Windows users

iii. Google Docs Voice Typing
