Allows You To
Use natural, continuous speech to issue commands, without any
training. Then, hear Prody Parrot respond in high-quality
synthetic speech, with a voice that you can customize to your
liking.
Communicate with Prody Parrot using mouse movements. For
example, draw a check mark to start your Internet browser.
At regular intervals, or on demand, Prody Parrot will check for
new messages in your e-mail accounts, then tell you how many
messages have arrived, who they are from, and what they are
about. You can easily define what information about the mails
you want to hear upon notification.
Prody Parrot will get the latest news or weather information—or
scores for certain sporting events—from the Internet. He can
read this information aloud to you while you perform other
tasks, or he can show it to you in your Internet browser.
Prody Parrot enables you to navigate the Internet by voice.
Simply say the name of any hyperlink, and he will take you to
the referred Web page, with no training required.
