Just wondering?
Since electronics can cram all sorts of programs into data collectors why can??t some of these software developers add speech recognition? Constantly having to press midget buttons or poke at the screen every time you want to perform a task or identify a corner is time consuming and antiquated considering the quantum leaps in speech recognition.
What say you??ÿ
Just my .02
The big bang to the buck in data collection was always in the field to finish aspect of most projects for me.?ÿ With a little bit of effort and extra time in the field the big benefit was in the office.?ÿ As far as voice recognition, that seems like an excellent idea to pose to your software people of choice.

Respectfully, Robert Locke, PLS
Would be useless to me Cajun accent is an unknown language.?ÿ?ÿ
Meh, dey might could make it onderstand dat cher
Like @Robert Locke said, it's all about the field to finish and BIM aspect rather than the boundary work being completed.
I dont understand why they can't create an app for my iphone to run everything... oh ya, they enjoy the 5 thousand dollars plus for a data collector.?ÿ

"5 thousand dollars plus for a data collector. "
Yes which they can purchase wholesale for around $500 a pop, then stamp their brand name on, load the software, and viola a $3 to $5k price tag.
Speech recognition is a big hard pill.
Google is compiling EVERYONES speach, on their speech program.
Via, cell phones.
It's a big task.
Soon, anybody who talks on a phone, will be unable to hide.?ÿ
Speech recognition does not at this pount (to my knowledge) happen in your cell phone. Your voice is sent through to a main computer at this time, and compiled into text elswhere. I think eventually, it will happen in our phones though.
Dem cajuns is a bit o work, an has challenged us all to unnerstann.
Good folk too.

I have a couple mini cassette recorders, and extra cassettes, in the desk drawer. about the size of a box of 100's.
The phone data collector would be a whole lot better if you could read it in the direct sunlight.
I think that it might have difficulty understanding some of the more colorful "construction" language... 🙂
Why does my TSC3?ÿ have the size and weight of a brick, all the computing power of Windows95, and cost 10x more than an Ipad??ÿ ?ÿ?ÿ
Happy to have a DC. I remember having to book the angles and distances, it was like Star Wars when TDS came out with the software for the 48 !
Shoot a Big tree .. Wow! ?ÿThe technology just keeps getting better with the more sophisticated collectors adding features you'll likely never use in the rest of your life.?ÿ
If it's anything like navigating I will get 14 calls every time I'm ready to take a shot...
