• The Vocal Joystick: Evaluation of Voice-based Cursor Control Techniques

  Susumu Harada, James A. Landay, Jonathan Malkin, Xiao Li, Jeff A. Bilmes (2006) — Proceedings of the 8th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '06)

  This paper presents the Vocal Joystick, a system that enables continuous mouse cursor control through vocal parameters — specifically vowel quality, loudness, and pitch. Unlike traditional speech recognition systems that process discrete commands ("m…
