This issue of Sensor Review is largely devoted to a special report on automatic speech recognition. It is a subject which, during the next few years will become of rapidly growing importance to industry, though at present its applications are strictly limited. As a sensing technology it bears some comparison with vision sensing, though the differences are much greater than the similarities and it is not yet as highly developed.

Speech recognition machines currently on the market are all built upon the same research foundation. The most important milestones on the road to presentday systems are reviewed in this article based largely on an interview with Dr Roger Moore of the Royal Signals and Radar Establishment.

Algorithms developed at the Royal Signals and Radar Establishment and the Joint Speech Research Unit open the way to greater precision in distinguising similar words and to recognition of continuously spoken connected speech.

Presentday systems are a long way short of the ultimate target of speakerindependent recognition of continuous natural speech. Brian Pay heads a small team at the National Physical Laboratory which is engaged in fundamental research towards that objective. He talked to Sensor Review about the NPL work.

There are severe limitations to the speech recognition systems currently on the market and the articles in this special report make quite clear what the systems will not do and why.

There are believed to be something in the region of 250 different speech recognition systems available worldwide. This brief review, together with the articles on two British connected speech systems and the report on the Japanese scene, can do no more than give a taste of what is currently available in Britain.
