Abstract
A voice-activated pulser can trigger an oscilloscope or a meter, upon a simple voice command, thereby enabling hands-free signal measurements. The pulser can also be used to control the circuit under test, activating it or changing parameters, all under voice control. The pulser includes numerous switch-selectable output modes that allow users to generate complex, tightly-controlled diagnostic sequences, all activated upon a voice command and hands-free. The invention includes a fast, robust command-interpretation protocol that completely eliminates the expense and complexity of word recognition. Visual indicators display the device status and various operating modes, and also confirm each output pulse. The device receives voice commands directly through an internal microphone, or through a detachable headset, and confirms each command with an acoustical signal in the headset.
