SINGAPORE – Speech-to-text audio transcription services for judicial proceedings and smart facilities management (FM) systems to help schools improve water and energy efficiency are among the upcoming projects under the Government’s information and communications technology (ICT) plans this year.
Judicial proceedings are currently transcribed manually by human operators and an audio service could potentially complement the work of the transcribers in some cases, said the Government Technology Agency (GovTech) in a statement on Friday (June 10).
It added that implementing smart FM systems in all schools will also enable the monitoring of utilities consumption, increase labour productivity by automating some processes, and facilitate data collection for improving maintenance.
