Why is it useful
Turning pages using the screen while reading a book (either with your finger
or your pen) is annoying. Using the power button puts wear and tear on this
fragile part. It is easier to make a noise or tap the case near the microphone.
History
I was interested in an application that could turn the page of a book with a
sound. If possible it would differentiate the sound sufficiently to do a few
other actions (up/overview). Voice monitor showed that the Newton could detect
changes in the noise levels. Daniel
Padilla was playing with Dragon's beta voice recognition software, and wanted
to adapt it to control the Newton, but it was a big load for the Newton (great
if it worked!). The Dragon software is also rather large... However, he did
manage to adapt voice monitor more successfully, and voiceturn was born. Thanks
and kudos to him!
