Highlights
Antimicrobial housing
The SpeechMike Premium's housing and buttons are
made of antimicrobial synthetics, guarding it against
all kinds of germs. Antimicrobial materials work
against a wide range of different microorganisms
such as bacteria (e.g. pneumococcal bacilli and multiresistant microorganisms such as MRSA), viruses
(e.g. HIV, influenza etc.), fungi (e.g. Aspergillus niger)
and algae. The antimicrobial effect on the
SpeechMike Premium lasts for at least five years.
Barcode scanner
Link client or patient data to a recorded file simply
by scanning a bar code (SpeechMike Premium
barcode devices only). The scanned information is
automatically attached to the dictation file,
streamlining the documentation process. All
identifying information is entered accurately,
increasing security and the potential for cost savings.
With the SpeechMike Premium, it's possible to scan
barcodes from up to 60 cm/23 inches away, twice
the distance co
Ergonomically shaped
As the rear of a dictation microphone is as important
as the front, Philips put an emphasis on shaping it so
that it fits the human hand perfectly and reduces
unintentional use of buttons. The trigger and the
"command" button on the rear housing are
engineered to be exactly where they need to be.
There has never been a desktop dictation device as
ergonomic as the SpeechMike Premium.
Free-floating microphone
The microphone in the new SpeechMike Premium is
decoupled from its housing for the most incredible
crystal clear recording performance ever to be
delivered by a desktop dictation device. The
completely redesigned microphone suspension
guarantees that almost no background, touch, click,
air or structure-borne noise is recorded. This
technique is derived from studio microphones to
make sure there are no sound distortions
whatsoever – and to guarantee outstanding speech
recognition results.
Freely configurable keys
With four freely configurable function buttons in the
lower area of the control panel, the SpeechMike
Premium can be further personalised for any user
and application. Work the way you want – a benefit
that only a Philips SpeechMike offers.
Integrated motion sensor
Being on the cutting edge of technology, the Philips
SpeechMike Premium comes with an integrated
motion sensor, making it the first stationary dictation
device that can be controlled by the movement of
your hand. It detects when it's put on the table and
mutes the microphone, and when it is picked up
again it unmutes the microphone. There are plenty
of situations where this feature can be greatly
mpared to its predecessor.
beneficial: just think of an incoming phone call or
someone stepping into your office. In addition,
custom events can be programmed to pause and
continue the recording, for example.
Integrated pop filter
The microphone area of the SpeechMike Premium is
made of many different layers to make it sound as
clear and original as possible. One of those is a fleece
inserted above and below the microphone capsule.
The fleece filters out sound distortions such as pop
and hiss noise, guaranteeing perfect results even if
you are dictating closely into the microphone.
Larger speaker area
Compared to its predecessor, the SpeechMike
Premium is equipped with a double-sized speaker
area that enables it to play back recordings in clear
and crisp quality.
Laser-scanned steel trackball
The SpeechMike Premium includes a built-in highprecision stainless steel trackball. Self-lubricated and
abrasive-resistant Teflon bearings guarantee smooth
operation over the entire lifetime. In combination
with a laser scanner and self-cleaning features, the
trackball is more precise and durable than ever
before. On top of that, the trackball can even be
taken out of the device for cleaning, if this should
ever be required.
Metal microphone grille
A well-engineered microphone grille is able to make
a high-end microphone like the one in the new
SpeechMike Premium stand out even more. The
hexagonal holes used for the metal grille feature
three times more open surface than its predecessor,
meaning that it is engineered to provide crystal clear
recordings.
Optimised control panel
Philips is the creator of the ergonomic zones design.
The SpeechMike Premium has been tested and
proven by users to have the most comfortable fit in
the human hand. The dictation zone is optimised to
keep thumb movement to a minimum. The buttons
needed for the actual dictation functions are placed
centrally, in the area most convenient for the thumb,
guaranteeing perfect ergonomics and non-fatiguing
usage for the user. Less frequently needed function
buttons are clearly arranged above and below. All
buttons used are formed to give as much tactile
feedback as possible.
Polished surface
The housing of the SpeechMike Premium is made of
high-class polymers. It is endued with a polished
surface and the material includes a pearl metal
additive providing a high-quality metallic effect and
making it non-sensitive to touch noises and
fingerprints.
