A system includes a measurement apparatus having sensors measuring physiologic parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, and/or blood oxygen level. A sensor is inserted into a user orifice and coupled to tissue comprising blood. Another sensor provides positioning information, and yet another sensor provides proximity information of the apparatus to the tissue. A communication device includes microphones of a headset adapted to be worn by the user to receive voice input commands, and also includes audio output devices. A voice recognition module processes voice commands to identify a specific command and is customized to user preferences. The apparatus communicates with a control system receiving and processing the physiological parameters including a touch-screen, a mechanical system having actuators, and a wireless transmitter to transmit data of the physiological parameters over a wireless link to a host. The control system manipulates part of the control system responsive to the voice commands.
