【background】
In medical institutions, there are potential challenges in communicating with people who are hard of hearing, such as the elderly or the hearing impaired. Under these circumstances, acrylic boards and vinyl curtains are being increasingly introduced as a measure against droplet infection of the new coronavirus at hospitals and pharmacy receptions. In addition, the wearing of masks has been enforced, highlighting the issue of difficulty in hearing voices, and creating a strong need for ways to achieve smooth dialogue.
[AmiVoice Com-Support, Overview]
This is a free iPad app that uses voice recognition to transcribe conversations in real time. Equipped with a voice recognition engine for medical and pharmacy applications, it can smoothly convert technical terms into text. Because it performs voice recognition in a stand-alone manner without connecting to external networks such as the Internet, you can safely handle important data such as conversations during medical examinations and medication guidance, including confidential hospital information and personal information.
