Voice recognition software is a type of technology that permits a user to speak into a microphone to operate the computer or to create text. Students who are unable to use a computer with their hands, for reasons such as muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injuries, but are able to speak may find speech recognition technology an option for computer access.
A very popular example of a Naturally Speaking Voice Recognition software is Dragon, which turns your talk into text and can make any computer task easier and faster for users. Below is a short video of how Dragon works.
