Abstract
In some implementations a storage device having a voice-recognition engine stored thereon is coupled to a microcontroller, a device-controller for a patient-lifting device is operably coupled to the microcontroller, a microphone having apparatus to locate the microphone in close proximity to the mouth of a human is operable to couple to the microcontroller.

A method comprising:
- representing an audio command of a patient-lifting-device in an electronic digital format;
- and
- electronically transforming the electronic digital formatted audio command of the patient-lifting-device by a process comprising:
- determining a direct correspondence between a port of a device-controller of the patient-lifting-device and the electronic digital formatted audio command;
- and
- configuring the port to perform the audio command.

A patient-lifting-device comprising:
- a sensor device;
- a microcontroller electrically coupled to the sensor device, the microcontroller having at least unit that is operable to receive data from the sensor device and operable to transform the data into at least one text-encoded binary representation of a command;
- and a unit that sends a signal corresponding to the at least one text-encoded binary representation of the command
- a device-controller that is operable to receive the signal and actuate a switch corresponding to the signal, the switch operable to close an electrical circuit corresponding to the command;
- and
- an actuator coupled to the electrical circuit and operable to actuate movement in response to current.
