Dragon Dictation Not Same with Siri

Nuance Coomunications Inc., today (31/01/2012) announces that applications Dragon Search and Dragon Dictation supports Indonesian language.
Two applications that rely on this phone user's voice, at first glance is similar to Siri features developed by Apple Inc.. What is the difference?



"The concept is similar, because it uses sound, but our applications (Dragon Search and Dragon Dictation) could not interact with mobile users like Siri. You like having a personal assistant if using Siri. There is interaction that makes you have to immediately respond to the question. While the application we, relying on your voice recording, and then write the text to your greeting, "explained Stuart Sharpe, Senior Director Asia Pacific, Sales Engineering Inc. Nuance Coomunications, during a press conference at the Four Season Hotel, Jakarta, Tuesday (31/01/2011).
However, according to Sharpe, Siri has limitations in the use of language. Siri can only do the commands in English native speakers, especially the British Classic.
Some dialects of English that is somewhat "slengek's" somewhat difficult to detect. Perhaps this is why many iPhone users have difficulty using Siri.
While the Dragon Search and Dragon Dictation can support dozens of languages, not just English. Choice of language can also be customized as needed.
"Only, you must be where the noise was a bit, so that our applications can understand your voice properly," added Sharpe.
Another thing that distinguishes applications and Dragon Search Dragon Dictation with Dragon Siri is that applications can be used everywhere to search the site.
If you are looking for a bookstore or a cafe located in Jakarta, but you look it up in Los Angeles, then Siri will not be able to give an answer because you're not in Jakarta.
But if you use Dragon Search, you still get location information bookstores and cafes are located in Jakarta, even though you're in Los Angeles.
"I do not intend to comment on products made by Apple, but if the question of what difference Siri with the Dragon Search and Dragon Dictation, then you've found the answer," lid Sharpe.
