- voice recording/playback system 48 records and stores voice messages digitally.
- voice recording/playback system 48 may include a digital sampler 52 for converting analog voice signals, i.e., voice messages received by microphone 16, into digital samples at a predetermined sampling rate, e.g., at a 4 kHz to 8 kHz sampling rate.
- Voice recording/playback system 48 may also include digital storage 54 for storing the digital samples from digital sampler 52. Thus, to play black a recorded voice message, the digital samples corresponding to the recorded voice message may be read from digital sampler 52 and provided to speaker 20, e.g., via a low-pass filter (not shown) and audio amplifier 50.
- voice recording/playback system 48 may be provided as an integrated circuit, such as the ISD5108 ChipCorder® voice record and playback integrated circuit, available from Winbond Electronics Corporation America, San Jose, California.

- controller 38 may receive a record instruction, e.g., from user interface 26.
- controller 38 may control voice system 48 so that it records a voice message received by microphone 16.
- the beginning, end, and/or duration of a voice message may be defined in various ways.
- the beginning and end of a voice message may be defined by the user, e.g., by when the user depresses and releases record button 30.
- the beginning and end of a voice message may be defined automatically based on voice levels, i.e., based on when the user begins speaking and when the user finishes speaking.
- voice levels i.e., based on when the user begins speaking and when the user finishes speaking.
- other approaches could be used to define the beginnings and ends of voice messages.
- each voice message may have a fixed duration.
- controller 38 may also store an indication in memory 42 that the test result it just obtained and stored has an associated voice message stored at a given location, e.g., an address, in digital storage 54.
- controller 38 may associate stored test results with voice messages by storing the test results in digital storage 54 with their associated voice messages.
- Other ways of associating test results with voice messages may also be used so that a test result and the one or more voice messages associated with it may be treated as part of the same test record. In this way, when controller 38 retrieves a stored test result, controller 38 may also locate the one or more voice messages associated with the stored test result.
- controller 38 may retrieve a stored test result from memory 42 along with information regarding the locations of any associated voice messages that may be stored in digital storage 54. Controller 38 may then display on display 24 the stored test result that it retrieved, and controller 38 may also use the location information it retrieved with the stored test result to cause voice system 48 to play on speaker 20 the one or more recorded voice messages associated with the stored test result. in addition to recording and playing back voice messages associated with test results, voice system 48 may perform other functions. For example, voice system 48 may have a more general voice message capability to allow the user to record and playback voice messages that are not associated with a particular test result. In another example, voice system 48 may be provided with pre-recorded voice messages.
- Such pre-recorded voice messages could, for example, serve as voice instructions to the user, such as how to use, set up, and/or troubleshoot medical diagnostic testing device 10.
- Voice system 48 may also include a speech recognition capability to recognize spoken instructions from the user. Voice system 48 could also be provided with other voice-related functions and capabilities. Preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above. Those skilled in the art will understand, however, that changes and modifications may be made to these embodiments without departing from the true scope and spirit of the invention, which is defined by the claims.
