[Lexicog] are there any dictionaries with voice recognition

Someone innocently suggested to me that the digital Learners
Dictionary of Norwegian should have, not only each word pronounced
(which I am planning), but somehow allow users to look up words with
voice recognition. It is probably not a good idea, given students'
poor pronunciation in general, but it did start me thinking......

So have any of you ever heard of such a thing? You say the word and
the dictionary looks it up.

Thanks. Louis Janus
