6 Graham Cassford gained a BSc Hons from Portsmouth Polytechnic in 1980 and a PhD from Reading University in He began his career with British Robotic Systems Ltd as a software engineer concerned with the development of Industrial Vision Processing Systems. In 1985 he joined Logica Energy and Industry Systems Ltd as a senior consultant within the Industrial Systems Group of the company. He is responsible for the design and implementation of shop-floor computer systems, specialising in the application of speech- and vision-based technologies. Jack Hollingum is a distinguised technical author and journalist, and a former editor of Sensor Review magazine. His previous publications include Machine Vision: The Eyes of Automation (1984); The Machine Vision Sourcebook (1986); Implementing an Information Strategy in Manufacture (1987); and Implementing Total Quality (1987), all published by IFS.
7 Preface Speech technology - the use of speech as a means of sending information to, and receiving information from computer systemshas been in use as a research tool for many years. Only recently has it begun to move out of the laboratory and into commercially worthwhile applications, first with compressed and synthesised spoken messages, then with computer recognition of spoken messages, and today with diverse applications involving both recognition and reproduction of human speech. We have written this book because we believe the technology has now advanced to the point where many more applications of voice recognition and response are both feasible and economically attractive. Computers that can understand everyday speech are still a distant prospect, but provided the limitations of present day equipment are clearly understood there is much that can be achieved with it. Our aim is to show, in non-technical language, what is now possible with the help of speech technology. The text includes many examples of current applications in industry, commerce and other fields, and we have selected five current industrial applications combining speech recognition and response for more detailed attention. Industrial cases have been chosen both because we see industry as an important growth area for speech applications in the next few years, and because it presents some of the greatest difficulties in speech recognition - if you can make it work in industry, then you can make it work almost anywhere. Included in the book as an appendix are brief details of companies offering equipment or services connected with speech technolgy. It
8 is based on information supplied by those compaies and makes no claim either to completeness or to endorsing the products and services mentioned. Nevertheless we hope that it will be of some help to anybody wishing to explore further the opportunities for introducing speech technology. A book like this inevitably draws on the knowledge and experience of a great many people, and it would be impossible to name or even to identify all of them. Several people, though, have given personal advice and help which we would like to acknowledge without in any way implicating them in any errors which may have crept into the text. We have drawn on the experience of a number of people in Logica. In particular Dr Jeremy Peckham, who is an international authority on speech recognition, has given a great deal of advice on the subject-matter of the book, as well as reading and commenting on the final draft. Chapters 2, 5, 6 and 8 in particular make considerable use of his expertise. Chris Wheddon, head of speech and language processing at the British Telecom Research Laboratories, gave a fascinating insight into work which should soon bear fruit in a number of important areas. Raj Gunawardana of the radio and speech systems group at Texas Instruments was helpful in reviewing developments in voice response and speaker independence. For information relating to the industrial case studies we are deeply indebted to Jaguar Cars Ltd., Caterpillar (UK) Ltd.; to Kapul Gill of Austin Rover for his contribution on the Rover Inspection system; to Alan Patrick of Rolls-Royce for detailed information on the voice-controlled inspection system at the company's Precision Casting Facility; and to Ford Motor Company and Computer Gesellschaft Konstant for information on the Cologne Distribution Centre. Other application details have come from many sources, but particularly from the companies which have also supplied details of their products and services - our grateful thanks to them.
