System and method for automated legal proceeding assistant

摘要

Techniques for accurately recording sworn deposition testimony without use of a court reporter are described herein.

The association of participants with recorded speech is used to automatically generate an accurate transcript sequentially reflecting what was said at the deposition proceeding and by which of the respective participants.
