=== Dragon Dictate's Development Steps === As one of the earliest pioneers in the realm of speech recognition software for personal computers, Dragon Dictate took incremental steps towards what would eventually become a transformative technology. Its initial incarnation, version 1.0, was characterized by discrete speech recognition, which means the user must pause between speaking each word. Dragon Dictate was available only through a few distribution and support partners, and it included a Shure cardioid microphone headset. Later it was replaced by Dragon NaturallySpeaking, which allows continuous speech recognition and correction and training of words via the keyboard.<ref>[[wikipedia:DragonDictate|DragonDictate]]</ref> Now Dragon Dictate has more and more comprehensive features, that enable users to use their voice to interact with their own computers. Specifically, we can use Dragon Dictate to do the following things: * Dictate text to be automatically typed into a document. * Use verbal commands to edit text. * Speak application commands to control computer operations. * Use verbal commands to manipulate the pointer to perform commands.<ref>[https://books.google.nl/books?hl=zh-CN&lr=&id=DlDtnZGEjLsC&oi=fnd&pg=PR5&dq=Dragon+Dictate&ots=7m6BKGvhMb&sig=9TX4eyfFqrQQPoTrXaTj-VEjIK0&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=Dragon+Dictate&f=false Dragon Dictate 2.5: Visual QuickStart Guide]</ref> In order to help you better understand Dragon Dictate, in this wiki, we will elaborate on its historical context, key innovations, impact, and future research.
