Cornwall NHS staff get VoIP phone badges
Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust has issued its staff with voice-activated handsfree ‘badges’, worn around the neck on a lanyard, which can put any user in touch with another member of staff just by saying their name or department into a microphone.
Cool!
I hope this is more reliable than when you phone up to book cinema seats in London and the system recognises your “London” voice request as “Aberdeen”.
