Google Voice Search App Download Pc How to Get Google Voice Search on Your PC google voice search app download pc How to get Google Voice Search on your PC. If you own an Android-powered smartphone or use the Google app on your iOS device, it's a good bet you've fallen in love with Google's voice- powered search. It works freakishly well. What you may not know is that you can enjoy a similar experience on your PC. All you need is Google's Chrome browser. And that really is all you need, because it turns out Voice Search is built right in. Just head to Google.com, then click the little microphone on the right side of the search field. (Needless to say, this will work only if your PC has a microphone. Most laptops do; most desktops don't, unless you have a Webcam.) The feature is also available in Google Maps, though it doesn't extend to other Google properties like Calendar, Gmail, and YouTube. I won't say this is quite as cool as the app version, as it doesn't seem to transcribe your words as you're saying them, but the end result is pretty much the same: Say what you want, and Google quickly and accurately recognizes it. In fact, you can even say things like, "I need directions to the nearest Starbucks," and Google will do the best it can (considering that your PC lacks GPS). This is by no means a new feature—Google added it to Chrome back in 2011​—but it's very easy to overlook. If you're a Chrome user, give it a try. It might seem a little weird at first to talk to your computer, but once you get used to it, you'll probably learn to love it.

  • Google Search by Voice: a Case Study
    Google Search by Voice: A case study Johan Schalkwyk, Doug Beeferman, Fran¸coiseBeaufays, Bill Byrne, Ciprian Chelba, Mike Cohen, Maryam Garret, Brian Strope Google, Inc. 1600 Amphiteatre Pkwy Mountain View, CA 94043, USA 1 Introduction Using our voice to access information has been part of science fiction ever since the days of Captain Kirk talking to the Star Trek computer. Today, with powerful smartphones and cloud based computing, science fiction is becoming reality. In this chapter we give an overview of Google Search by Voice and our efforts to make speech input on mobile devices truly ubiqui- tous. The explosion in recent years of mobile devices, especially web-enabled smartphones, has resulted in new user expectations and needs. Some of these new expectations are about the nature of the services - e.g., new types of up-to-the-minute information ("where's the closest parking spot?") or communications (e.g., "update my facebook status to 'seeking chocolate'"). There is also the growing expectation of ubiquitous availability. Users in- creasingly expect to have constant access to the information and services of the web. Given the nature of delivery devices (e.g., fit in your pocket or in your ear) and the increased range of usage scenarios (while driving, biking, walking down the street), speech technology has taken on new importance in accommodating user needs for ubiquitous mobile access - any time, any place, any usage scenario, as part of any type of activity. A goal at Google is to make spoken access ubiquitously available. We would like to let the user choose - they should be able to take it for granted that spoken interaction is always an option.

  • Search Engine Optimisation for Digital Voice Assistants and Voice Search
    Search engine optimisation for digital voice assistants and voice search Ritva Riikka Hautsalo Degree Thesis Degree Programme International business Ritva Riikka Hautsalo 2019 DEGREE THESIS Arcada Degree Programme: International Business Identification number: 20309 Author: Ritva Riikka Hautsalo Title: Search engine optimisation for digital voice assistants and voice search Supervisor (Arcada): Mikael Forsström Commissioned by: The subject of this thesis was search engine optimisation (SEO) for digital assistants and voice search. The thesis investigated if marketers have adapted SEO practices to suit the requirements of digital assistants and voice search. In addition, the thesis examined the current situation of digital assistants and voice search in Finland. The thesis had two research questions: 1. How to execute SEO for voice search and digital assis- tants? 2. Current state for voice search and digital assistants? As the research topic was quite extensive, it had to be limited. The focus of the study was based using Googles recommendations of SEO best practises. In addition, Apple's Siri, Google Assistant and Amazon's Alexa were selected for the study. Chinese digital assistant Baidu and Microsoft's Cortana assistant were excluded from the thesis. The material used in the thesis was collected from various online articles, blog posts, and the general help and product pages for the digital assistants involved in the research. From these sources the theoretical framework was drafted. As the subject of the thesis was a relatively new, the qualitative research was chosen as the method. This method is particularly well suited for research of new phenomena and topics. The material of the empirical part of the thesis was collected through a series of expert interviews.
