Abstract
A voice-activated instrument performs a measurement and displays the measured value when commanded by voice. The system also resets under voice control. The measurement trigger is any single-syllable command such as “Count” or “Go”. The reset trigger is any two-syllable command such as “Reset”. Any type of momentary measurement device may be controlled in this way, including time interval measurements, event counting, length measuring, weighing, and electronic metering measurements, and many others.
