Collecting Data with Iristick.Collector

Iristick.Collector supports four types of input during data collection. Each data type fits seamlessly into your observation templates and can be controlled entirely by voice.

1. Number Step

Numerical fields are used for scoring measurements, counts, or any value with digits.

  • Say numbers digit by digit: “two three five” for 235
  • Decimal? Say: “one zero” for 1.0
  • Use auto-advance to automatically jump to the next step after input (if enabled)

Voice Command Tips:

  • Clear Value to erase the current number
  • Enable Auto Advance or Disable Auto Advance to control flow

2. Text Step

Use this field when you need to record a comment or note. The app transcribes your voice input into text.

  • Say “Start Recording” to begin transcription
  • Say “Stop Recording” to finalize it

This is ideal for observations that can’t be pre-defined or require context.

3. Value List Step

These are predefined choices that behave like dropdowns. Say the value to select it. Say the value again to unselect it.

  • Use for scoring categories like “Good / Medium / Bad” or selecting specific tags
  • If multi-select is enabled, you can add more than one
