The free-floating microphone is decoupled from the device housing, which ensures that almost no noise is recorded from background activity, touch, clicks, air or structural noise. This technique, which comes from studio microphones, prevents sound distortion and optimises speech recognition results.

The specially designed hexagonal openings of the metal cover provide a three times larger open surface area than the previous model, ensuring crystal clear shots.

Non-woven fabric above and below the microphone capsule filters out sound distortion such as pop or hissing sounds and allows perfect recording results even when dictating close to the microphone.

The SpeechMike Premium Touch is equipped with an extra-large speaker, so that the recordings taken with it can also be played clearly and without interference.

Thanks to its ergonomic shape, the device fits perfectly in the hand and incorrect operation is less common. The shutter release and control button on the back of the device are attached so that they can be easily reached with your fingers.

The Philips SpeechMike Premium has an integrated motion sensor. It detects when placed on the table and mutes the microphone. Once you take it back to hand, the microphone will be activated again. In addition, custom events can be programmed when the device interrupts and resumes recording.

The device is equipped with a touch sensor. The user can easily control and navigate applications while recording without having to switch between mouse and microphone.

The hygienic surface of the SpeechMike case physically makes it difficult to settle germs and thus improves the efficiency of the usual measures for disinfecting the device. The high-quality polished pearl metallic surface also makes the device resistant to touch noise and fingerprints.

The SpeechMike Premium Touch has freely configurable buttons that are particularly suitable for programming voice recognition commands. The device can be personalised for each user for the respective application.

The user can upgrade from their previous SpeechMike model without having to install additional software. For integrators, this means no changes need to be implemented and that the existing SDK can continue to be used. SpeechMike Premium Touch is compatible with Mac OS and Windows operating systems, as well as virtual environments such as Citrix, VM Ware and Hyper-V. The device can be configured with SpeechControl, Philips easy-to-use hardware management tool.
