Contents [The AT Evidence Base] I have decided to stop new submissions to this site (which I think was one of the first wikis dedicated to AT), and just leave the content up as archive. The reasons for this are that a)the site did not take as a collaborative b) there are other tools around now that people in AT can use to network/collaborate c) people are starting to spam the site and i haven’t time to maintain it. Some of the other places to go these days are: Thanks.

Speech Dasher: An Efficient Interface Using Speech and Gestures. Speech Dasher is a novel interface for the input of text using a combination of speech and navigation via a pointing device (such as a mouse). A speech recognizer provides the initial guess of the user's desired text while a navigation-based interface allows the user to confirm and correct the recognizer's output. It is hoped that Speech Dasher will provide a text input interface which is: More efficient - allowing faster input than either speech or navigation alone.More fun - providing a consistent and less frustrating method of correcting speech recognition errors.More accessible - enabling text input by people unable to use a keyboard and by those using mobile devices.
Entering text using Speech Dasher begins with the user speaking their desired sentence to a continuous speech recognition engine (currently Microsoft's Speech Recognizer v5.1 or Dragon Naturally Speaking 7, 8 or 9).
