Introduction
Philips Device Connector (PDC) is a Google Chrome extension accompanied by a native host application. PDC connects websites, such as speechlive.com, with Philips dictation hardware like Foot controls or SpeechMikes.
Benefits
It allows using the buttons of Philips dictation hardware to control SpeechLive features in a Chrome Browser session (e.g. the webplayer, recorder or Speech to text) even if the Chrome browser is minimised or you are working inside another application like Word
Offers persistent connection between the hardware and the SpeechLive web application
SpeechMike can be used in "Event mode" (this is the default out-of-the-box button mode), no need to switch to „Browser mode“
Support for VDI / remote environments.
