Increased threat and system capabilities create a potential for operator overload in the AWACS workstation environment. Voice I/O is being explored as a means to improve human/computer communication and increase operator effectiveness. The naturalness and efficiency of voice I/O was demonstrated for several AWACS functions with a prototype system. Representative end-users remarked about the straight-forward and intuitive nature of voice I/O for these functions. Rebustness, however, remains a problem. This is especially true for voice input. Our current efforts are aimed at applying contextual knowledge and graphical information, collected at the same time as voice input, to reduce speech recognition errors in the noisly and stressful airborne workstation environment.
