Speech recognition control system and method

Patent ·
OSTI ID:7007680

This invention relates to a system and method for weighing articles and quantities of material wherein computing functions are performed to effect calculations and the control of a visual presentation means such as a display or printer or the generation of signals for use in recording a transaction. In particular, the invention relates to such a weighing and computing apparatus and method which operates or varies in response to speech signals generated by selected words of speech spoken into a microphone by an operator of the apparatus. It is known in the art to electronically detect the weight of articles and containers of material and to generate electrical signals which are indicative of such weight. It is also known to effect a computation with respect to such signals and additional signals generated by manually operating selected keys of a keyboard wherein the additional signals represent one or more additional variables which must be divided into or multiplied by the numerical representation of the weights of articles weighed by such apparatus.
