Since then there has been numerous trying to come with the best solution not until the 1990s,the unveiling of speedy microprocessors made the invention of the voice recognition technology more viable .This enabled the dragon company to produce the world's first voice recognition system for consumers called the dragon dictate.In 1997 this the Dragon dictate was upgraded and to developed to speak naturally with this result the system consumers could speak up to hundred words per minute.
