The Olympus DS-9500 incorporates low noise omni-directional microphones and Shock Resistant Mounting which reduces touch noise from your hand. The Triple-Layer Pop-Filter blocks the wind noise when talking into the microphones. Dragon speech recognition accuracy is dependent on the signal-to-noise ratio of the recording, which means achieving clearer voice and lower noise are the two key factors. The Beam Forming function works to suppress noise from surroundings, enhancing your voice. Users can choose three different modes, Dictation for Quiet Environments, Dictation for Noisy Environments and Conference Recording mode for interviews and meetings.
Share your encrypted digital dictation anytime, anywhere. Thanks to in-built Wi-Fi connectivity, Authors no longer need to carry a PC to download the dictations to the ODMS workflow since you can send the dictations via Wi-Fi at any time. Files can be transferred directly to your local/network folder, or in case you want to send your dictations outside of the usual workflow, the e-mail function can be used. Files sent to a folder managed under ODMS can receive the transcription status back on the device in a timely manner, allowing the Authors to follow up accordingly. For Administrators, device configuration can be deployed wirelessly from the ODMS System Configuration Program.
The Olympus DS-9500 256-bit AES encryption system protects data from illegal access. This is supported when recording in the DSS Pro ( .ds2 ) audio format. This encryption standard meets high security standards set by governments worldwide. In addition to securing the data, the Olympus DS-9500 device lock feature protects the device from unauthorised access by utilising a 4 digit PIN code.
