Can other FM systems be used with the iCommunicator program?
The iCommunicator manufacturer tested many FM systems and determined that the LightSPEED 360 FM system provided the best input for speech/voice recognition due to its low noise level and the enhancement provided by the upgraded TK-250 noise-canceling microphone. In addition, the LightSPEED FM system is calibrated for optimum translation accuracy prior to shipping. To maintain a high level of translation accuracy, it is important to have a clear speech input that is not distorted by noise. This is similar to trying to understand clearly when you are listening in a background of noise, such as in the food court at the mall, a party, a basketball game, or similar function. Noise degrades a speech signal because noise has more power than speech sounds. As a result, listening in a background of noise can lead to misperceptions of what was said. The LightSPEED FM provides the clearest signal with the highest translation accuracy, and that is why it was the input device selected to be include
