A computer implemented voice recognition method and system for adjusting an input level to adjust the input signal amplitude level of spoken words to enhance voice recognition. A user is prompted with a word to speak into a microphone. The spoken word is converted into an analog electrical signal having an input signal amplitude level. A sound card then converts this analog signal to a digital stream of data. This input signal amplitude level is compared to a reference amplitude level. An adjustment to an input volume control is made with respect to the comparison to adjust the input signal amplitude level to approach the reference amplitude level. The invention also uses an iterative process for a set number of iterations to make the adjustment for the input signal amplitude level to approach the reference amplitude level.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A computer implemented method for adjusting an input level of an input device in a voice recognition system including a visual display, said input device having an input volume control for adjusting an input signal amplitude level of a word spoken into said input device by a user, comprising the steps of:a) prompting on said visual display said user to speak said word into said input device until said word is spoken;b) producing from said input device an input signal amplitude level when said word is spoken;c) comparing said input signal amplitude level to a preselected signal amplitude level to produce a comparison value;d) adjusting said input volume control of said input device with respect to said comparison value to adjust said input signal amplitude level to be within a pre-determined range of level values related to said preselected signal amplitude level; ande) iteratively repeating steps a) through d) a predetermined number of times.
