Speech Processing Solutions finds Dedicated Devices as Top Trend from CES 2015

ATLANTA - Jan. 15, 2015 - PRLog -- Speech Processing Solutions, the market leader in professional dictation systems, announced key trends from the 2015 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), an annual technology conference that was held in Las Vegas, NV. The company aligned itself with the increasing discussions related to dedicated devices, including health wearables and voice technologies, which were major trends  displayed by other top technology companies throughout the show.

As smartphone technology offerings continue to rise, consumers are finding that dedicated devices for certain tasks better meet their needs. Specifically, dedicated voice recorders can provide more benefits as compared to a smartphone with a built in recorder. The Philips Digital Voice Tracers, displayed at the CES, received positive interest of those attending. Some particular benefits for the Voice Tracer range include:

Increased storage space, allowing users to capture up to 4GB of audio files which is equivalent to 44 days of continuous recordings.
Improved battery life, with 50 hours of recording time before having to recharge the device.
The AutoAudjust+ feature, which analyzes incoming noise and adjusts to outside sounds or the distance through an innovative intelligent recording algorithm – enabling the highest quality recordings.
A new full-color display, which has a clear screen that mimics a smart phone, making it more intuitive for users.

“According to a recent survey, 22 percent of iPhone users run out of space at least once a month,” said Dr. Thomas Brauner, CEO of Speech Processing Solutions. “This is one of the critical functionalities we’ve considered when continuing to innovate our dedicated devices for voice recording. The Philips Digital Voice Tracer range has been optimized and customized for a particular purpose so users can be confident in our technology to meet their specific needs at any time, and from anywhere.”

The 2015 CES show was the largest in show history with more than 2.2 million net square feet of exhibit space and 3,600 exhibitors. This year more than 170,000 industry professionals convened at the only event of its kind to engage in the hands-on experience of interacting with the next generation of technology.
