Speech recognition
Which is a good system for speech recognition in terms accuracy, speed, size, ease of use,·etc, ?
I have found many of them on the internet and several electronics magazines.
Too many to take an easy·decission.
Anyone has experience with any of these recognizers·who may want to comment on this subject·?

There is a gentleman there who has one on his Boe-Bot and you maybe able to ask him what he used.

The Voice Direct II would be a good option is all you want to do is recognition of a few (15) words or phrases. The Voice Extreame Toolkit is much more advanced but has a bigger price tag.

I plan on using this on what I am calling my Anti-Monkeys. I have 3 BOE-Bots and am outfitting one with the Voice Direct, one with an EMIC, and one with a CMU-Cam...this should give me a fleet with tho opposite characteristics of "Hear no evil, Speak no evil, See no evil"...hence the "Anti-Monkeys" moniker...yeah, cheesy, but...
Eventually they will communicate with each other becoming a "distributed sensory colony being" or whatever...
Wish me luck...

I agree wholeheartedly. I have lots of gear that was considered obsolete, but that I can find no adequate replacement for (either in price or functionality).
allanlane5,
Wasn't that an Infocom game in which you were in a cryo tank or something? (yeah, I know...Google is my friend...I was just culling my memory a little) Imagine...a game in which you actually had to strategize and <gulp> think <g>.

Voice Extreme comes with a toolkit to create programs that run on the training board. You can test voice-independent (only some words), perform new words training and test speech synthesis with ease. By the way the wav-to-synth utility works very well.
For those interested on Direct Voice II there was an interesting article on how to put one in a robot in the french magazine Electronique Pratique. (www.elecroniquepratique.com) January 2005.
I have found the Voice Direct 364 is very powerful device. I have trained it with some words and the device respond very accurate to voice recognition.
The only problem I have found is that this device uses 8 lines to send serial stat to BS2. I have solved the issue with a 74HC165 as described in exercise 24 Stamps at Work, so I have ended with all the info needed in only·three ·I/O ports of BS2. Actually I'm using the Continuos Listening Mode in Single Word CL Config in Voice Direct with great results, connected to my NX-1000 board.
I'm planning to use the info sent from Voice Recognition to trigger some actions in the robot, like moving foward, moving backwards and so.
The robot will include also a Compass module, so I'm planning to match some voice instructions with the information collected from Compass.
Any comments and suggestions will be appreciatted.
Regards
daniel
