Here's the situation:
I work at the Post Office as a Clerk, and need to know literally hundreds upon hundreds of streets and what routes they are on. There are currently 35 city routes and 15 rural routes in my office, each with upwards of 25-30 streets, roads, lanes, circles, drives, ways and places. There is a book listing all of these in alphabetical order (called "The Scheme"), and I am expected to know it front to back. This isn't a problem for those who have been using it for 25 years, but to us noobs it is presenting a heck of a challenge.
I have tried flash cards, both traditional and virtual (Anki is a great flash card program!) and they work to an extent. I have a good portion of the Scheme down pat. There are many, however, that I just can't seem to lock into the old, mushy grey filing cabinet upstairs.
What I need is a programmable App that will hear what I say and respond with a likewise programmed response. Slap on the old Plantronics, turn on the "mystery app", and throw mail like a pro!
And now... A dramatic representation!
Me: Rustic Ridge Drive
Android: R14
Me: Beechwood Boulevard
Android: C16
Me: 400 North Main Street
Android: C1
Me: 600 North Main Street
Android: C11
..Etc...
Anyone heard of such a thing? Kind of like flash cards, but with speech recognition and audio response.
