Casual speech recognition
Due to natural language speech recogni-
tion technology, this system enables re-
cognition of a command when spoken
naturally. However, the system cannot
recognize every variation of each com-
mand. In some situations, it is possible to
omit the command for the procedure and
directly state the desired operation. Not all
voice commands are displayed in the
function menu.
