Google today announced the launch of Voice Access beta, an application that lets you use speech recognition to control Android devices.
"Everyone will obviously be able to use the new feature, which is designed for specific groups of people and especially for" people who have difficulty handling a touch screen due to paralysis, tremor, temporary disability or other reasons, "Eve said. Andersson, head of accessibility engineering at Google.
"For example, you can say 'open Chrome' or 'go home' to browse the phone, or interact with the screen by saying 'click next' or 'scroll down,'" Andersson said in a blog post.
With Voice Access, Google is the latest company to enhance this accessibility area over the past few weeks. Twitter has already started trying to let people publish images for tweets, Facebook has enhanced screen reader for iOS to describe images to visually impaired people, Microsoft spoke about the Seeing AI application at Build Developers Conference, and Apple released a video showing how the iPad tablet helps an autistic person communicate with others.
We should point out how much Google has improved speech recognition technology, which uses artificial intelligence.
Last year, Google reported that the Google Voice Recovery Rate was down by 50 percent.
With the Voice Access app, Google now has "enough testers" to further improve the application.
