    For SpeechExec Recorder and Dictation Hardware

    Enhance your application

    with professional digital dictation

    The Philips Software Development Kit (SDK) provides an interface to a full professional digital dictation solution including Philips dictation hardware and the Philips SpeechExec Recorder.

    Increase flexibility by operating third-party applications having SpeechExec SDK integrated and SpeechExec Enterprise in one environment.

    C# and Visual Basic 6.0 examples with both source code and compiled executables for easy start of integration.

    Philips SpeechExec SDK provides one simple interface to hide the complexity of integrating dictation hardware, handling audio codecs or implementing recorder functionality.

    The .dss file format is the international standard for professional speech processing. Offering outstanding audio quality for recorded voice, .dss files allow a high compression rate and reduced file size, network traffic, and required storage capacity. The format also allows additional information, such as client/patient name or document type, to be stored in the file header, further facilitating file organization.

    Philips SpeechExec SDK encapsulates all required interfaces to integrate Philips SpeechMike, Digital Pocket Memo and foot pedal.

    Support for Windows Terminal Server, Citrix and VMware. Philips Speech Drivers allow the usage of Philips hardware along with virtualized third-party applications.

    Develop your integration with Microsoft Visual Studio and make use of Microsoft .NET 4.0 Framework for future proof software development.
