Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, currently existing dictation and transcription systems do not provide any feedback to the dictation client regarding the quality of the audio file other than providing a poorly transcribed audio file
However, in some cases, poor transcription quality is caused by capturing audio files that are saturated, clipped, garbled, etc.

Embodiment Construction

[0023] will now refer to Figure 1 to Figure 5 The technique of this application is demonstrated. While the techniques of this application are described with reference to a remote dictation server connected to a dictation client via a network or Internet connection to provide streaming audio over the Internet connection using conventional streaming protocols, one of ordinary skill in the art It will be appreciated after reading the disclosure that other configurations are possible. For example, the techniques of this application are described with respect to thin client stations, but more processor intensive options can be utilized in thick or fat clients. Additionally, the technology of the present application is described with respect to certain exemplary embodiments. The word "exemplary" is used herein to mean "serving to illustrate, instance, or illustrate." Any embodiment described herein as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous ov...

Abstract

An audio quality feedback system and method is provided. The system receives audio from a client via a communication device such as a microphone, The audio quality feedback system compares the received audio to one or more parameters regarding the quality of the feedback. The parameters include, for example, clipping, periods of silence, signal to noise ratios. Based on the comparison, feedback is generated to allow adjustment of the communication device or use of the communication device to improve the quality of the audio.

Description

[0001] Claim priority under 35 U.S.C §§119 and 120 [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61 / 319,078, filed March 30, 2010, entitled "DICTATION CLIENT FEEDBACK TO FACILITATE AUDIO QUALITY," which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. [0003] References to Other Co-Pending Patent Applications [0004] none. technical field [0005] The technology of the present application relates generally to dictation systems, and more specifically to providing feedback to a dictation user about the quality of audio being dictated to allow corrections to be made while dictation is taking place. Background technique [0006] Originally, dictation was an exercise in which one person dictated while another recorded what was dictated. The scribe listens and writes down what is dictated. With modern technology, dictation has advanced to a stage where speech recognition and speech-to-text technologies enable computers and pr...
