Dragon Assistant on Ultrabook models leverages the power of speech recognition technology, giving users the flexibility to control applications using their voice.

Simply speaking, “Hello Dragon,” launches the assistant and allows people to search the Web, find content on their laptop, play music and movies, check and reply to email, update Facebook and Twitter, make Skype calls and even shut down, restart or put the laptop to sleep.
