Abstract

A action inducing device for giving instructions to complete various tasks in a plurality of languages. The action inducing device includes a microprocessor adapted for processing received electronic data and sending electronic audio signals. A plurality of storage medium electronically stores data. Each of the storage mediums has a different set of instructions thereon. Each of the storage medium provides one set of instructions in a plurality of languages. A reading device reads the electronically stored data on the storage media. The reading device is electrically coupled to the microprocessor. A is electrically coupled to the microprocessor. A plurality of actuators is used for selecting one of the languages. The actuators are operationally coupled to the microprocessor.

Claims
