Ideally, he continued, the various dialects of the tribes in Indonesia from Sabang to Merauke in the teach these tools so that these machines can change the voice into text with more accurate and faster.

"Development perisalah forward the most urgent is the addition of sound model data. However, current constraints on government budget allocation problem for that," added Oscar.

Oskar also stressed, that perisalah tool is built with open source operating system (open-source code) that is Linux.

In GCOS also exhibited a variety of products that rely on open source software, such as EasyHotspot, creative market sites, data analysis software, Olive Time Series, Bajau Enterprise solution and others.
