We now have a wireless microphone that can be used with a radio frequency receiver that plugs into the computer. The receiver runs on AA batteries, and seems use them fairly quickly. To remedy this we will use rechargeable batteries, and they should be lithium ion batteries because of their short charge times and long life. RF-ID stands for radio frequency identification. They are a superior alternative to bar codes in all of these ways.

We have not received the equipment yet, and one of our tasks will be learning to set up and use it. This will mostly be Nathaniel Brown s responsibility. As explained earlier in the portion of this paper titled What we have done, there is a set of grammar that will be used to simplify use of voice recognition software. The essential data must be identified and classified in some way.
