Free Floating, Decoupled Microphone For Precise Recording

The metal grille comes with specially designed hexagonal openings which allow three times more sound to reach the microphone than its predecessor, engineered to provide crystal clear recordings. A fleece inserted above and below the microphone capsule filters out sound distortions such as pop and hiss noise, guaranteeing perfect results even if dictating closely into the microphone.

Optimized Microphone Grille And Integrated Pop Filter For Crystal Clear Sound

The metal grille comes with specially designed hexagonal openings which allow three times more sound to reach the microphone than its predecessor, engineered to provide crystal clear recordings. A fleece inserted above and below the microphone capsule filters out sound distortions such as pop and hiss noise, guaranteeing perfect results even if dictating closely into the microphone.

Integrated Motion Sensor Mutes Microphone When Not In Use

Being on the cutting edge of technology, the Philips SpeechMike Premium comes with an integrated motion sensor, making it the first stationary dictation device that can be controlled by the movement of your hand. It detects when it’s put on the table, mutes the microphone, and once it is being picked up again it unmutes the microphone. There are plenty of situations this feature can be greatly beneficial; just think of an incoming phone call or someone stepping in your office. In addition to that, custom events can be programmed, e.g., to pause and to continue the recording.

Trackball For Integrated Mouse Function 

The device comes with a trackball. This allows the user to easily control and navigate within applications while recording, without having to switch between the mouse and microphone. The trackball can even be taken out of the device for cleaning, if this should ever be required. The self-lubricated and abrasive resistant Teflon bearings guarantee a smooth operation over the entire lifetime.

Built-In Support For Nuance Speech Recognition For A Hassle-Free ‘Plug And Play’ Installation 

Philips SpeechMike is designed to work seamlessly with Nuance speech recognition and is also supported by leading hospital information systems (HIS), radiology information systems (RIS), and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS). With native, built-in support for these systems, users can simply plug in the device and start using it immediately, without requiring any extra installation steps.

Wear-Free Slide Switch And Push Buttons For Comfortable Operation 

The SpeechMike Premium comes with slide-switch or push-button operation. The slide switch is ergonomically shaped with a softly ribbed surface for smooth tactile feedback and comfortable and intuitive utilization. In addition, our engineers implemented a millionfold proven contactless slider detection, making it completely wear-free for an extra-long lifetime.

Hygienic Surface 

The hygienic surface of the SpeechMike housing physically hinders the colonization of germs and thus improves the efficiency of the usual measures for disinfecting the device. The polished, high quality pearl metal surface also makes the device non-sensitive to touch noises and fingerprints.

Smart, Backwards Compatible Firmware For Extra Flexibility 

Customers can upgrade from their previous SpeechMike model without installing additional software. For integrators, this means no changes need to be implemented and the existing SDK can be used. The SpeechMike Premium is compatible with Mac and Windows operating systems, as well as virtual environments such as Citrix, VM Ware and Hyper-V. It can be configured using SpeechControl, the convenient Philips hardware management tool.

Freely Configurable Function Buttons 

You can freely configure the buttons on your device or use the pre-installed Secured Dragon Mode. This mode pre configures the buttons, optimizing them for use with Dragon speech recognition software. It requires no additional driver installation, making set up easy, even in virtual environments.

Refined Microphone Grille

A well-engineered microphone grille is able to make a high-end microphone as in the new SpeechMike Premium stand out even more. The hexagonal holes used for the metal grille feature three times more open surface than its predecessor, engineered to provide crystal clear recordings.

Incorporated Pop Filter

Philips has devised an innovative solution to significantly reduce the impact of sound distortions such as sudden bursts of air, which often result in distracting popping sounds during recordings. With this feature, speech recognition software is better able to discern the intended words and not be thrown off by extraneous noises. The integrated hardware fleece is strategically positioned both above and below the microphone capsule. This fleece serves to effectively counter sound distortions that arise when a user speaks closely into the microphone, effectively eliminating hisse

Spacious Speaker Area

A generous speaker equals exceptional sound quality. The LFH3500 boasts a large speaker, which enables smooth playback of recordings even in noisy or challenging environments. Thanks to the ample size of the speaker, you can now enjoy high-fidelity, clear and crisp audio playback directly from the SpeechMike Premium Air.

Freely Configurable Buttons And Modes For A Personalized Device

You can freely configure the buttons on your device or use the pre-installed Secured Dragon Mode. This mode pre-configures the buttons, optimizing them for use with Dragon speech recognition software. It requires no additional driver installation, making set up easy, even in virtual environments.

Ergonomic Design 

Ergonomically shaped for perfect fit in the hand The device is designed to fit perfectly into the hand and reduce unintentional pressing of buttons. The trigger and the ‘command’ button on the back of the device are engineered to be in easy reach for the fingers.

Optimized Control Panel

 With their new Optimized Control Panel, you can expect nothing but the best in terms of functionality and comfort. Philips has carefully tested and crafted this control panel with users in mind. The result is a control panel that offers a comfortable fit for the human hand, making it easy to use for extended periods of time. The programmable keys have been strategically placed in easy-to-reach spots, minimizing thumb movement and allowing for a personalized workflow. This means that you can take advantage of specific speech recognition commands, making your device work for you in the most efficient way possible.
