Acceptance of a speech interface for biomedical data collection

Speech interfaces have the potential to address the data entry bottleneck of many applications is the field of medical informatics. An experimental study evaluated the effect of perceptual structure on a multimodal speech interface for the collection of histopathology data. A perceptually structured multimodal interface, using speech and direct manipulation, was shown to increase speed and accuracy. Factors influencing user acceptance are also discussed.
