RE: (meteorobs) computer plotting vs chart manual plotting.



Lew,
Speech Recognition is absolutely the best way to go. The technology is 
cheap and being built by so many vendorsdot it definitely lends itself to the 
task of meteor tracking for the specifics. I think we have touch on a 
subject that all have thought of and varied ways. With the technology at 
our hands and the experience that is available,I think it is simply a 
matter of time and effort. Of course, after the Perseids. I will venture to 
ask the engineers in the Physics and Space program at FIT if they have 
ventured anywhere near this and try a little research via my vendor 
friends. Talk to you all in a day or so (school registration- 3 of them).

Marji, I hope this is exactly the kind of discussion which can thrive on
meteorobs. Feel free to start a separate mailing list for this if you wish, 
but
if you're looking for discussion of your ideas by experienced meteor 
observers
(of all stripes), I think meteorobs is your best bet.

BTW, with regard to entering non-positional information via computer, one
obvious possibility which a powerful PC-in-the-field opens up is simple 
speech
recognition: saying "second magnitude,sporadic,yellow" as you plot a meteor 
is a
whole lot easier than fiddling with keypads AFTER you plot one. The 
vocabulary
is simple enough that even very primitive SR technology on a low-end 
machine
should be up to it, and it has many obvious advantages. Thoughts?
