Limitations

• bad voice recognition in case of noise or very loud stickhandling
• bad voice recognition in case of very slow or very fast speak

Troubleshooting

To improve voice recognition try to use "Voice" tab on "Drill Manager" to practice your pronunciation. "Drill Manager" can recognize only digits from 1 to 9. Just click on "Speak" button them say any eligible number and see recognized text. Do that exercise few times to find which number was recognized without any errors and which one are not.

Also you can use "Voice test" tab. "Voice Test" will run 3 rounds of voice recognition tests. And finally will generate score. Score will show which numbers will be excluded from list. You can create your profile and that score will be saved to your profile. So different players can load individual profile to get better voice recognition results.

No moving objects on some "Station". Probably computer doesn't support OpenGL. Please make sure graphics card support it. Also make sure "Station" connected to "Drill Manager" properly.

Bad voice recognition in case of very small silent gap between 2 different digits. So if you say "one-four" it most probably won't recognize, because it will look like one word "onefor". For better result you should keep silent about 1..1.5 seconds.
