Abstract
A system and method of automatically assembling voice information and image information into reports or data bases is disclosed. The system uses a microphone connected to a computer for converting spoken words into text and then parses the text to distinguish commands for execution from text information for the report. Commands for image acquisition cause digital images to be inserted within the report or within a database file. Images are associated with text information or with specific locations within the text information. In dependence upon the commands and the associations, a report is automatically generated from pre-recorded information.
