voice-recognition

I need an API or library (preferably free) that will convert voice/speech through a microphone, into text (string). Additionally, I will need an API or library that can do text-to-speech. I'd like to use C# and .NET, but other languages will suffice. Thanks. ShahidAzim You can use CMU Sphinx as it is pretty open and scalable solution and I think it can be used at both client and server side: http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/ If you are looking for a Microsoft desktop solution then you can use SAPI: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163663.aspx On server side, you can use Microsoft

Is it possible to implement an activity as a service? My activity is a voice recognition activity. I want to have the activity running in the background of the app constantly checking for voice and when the user says a command it will recognize it and then perform the action. My question is...is it possible to do this and if so how can the background service notify the current activity or application? There was a previous post on this which had no clear answer...Thanks for any input or help. Here is the voice activity...taken from another StackOverflow post: import android.app.Activity; import

I'm not sure if this is the right site for this question, but I was wondering how the voice activated search on Google's homepage works. Does it use Flash, some kind of plugin built into Google Chrome, or how does it use the microphone? This could be a dangerous privacy invasion if it is allowed to work the same way on any website, because no dialog asking for permission comes up, and I find this startling that Google (and who knows what other sites) can use my microphone without my permission. How is Google doing this? Javascript? Actionscript? Some custom plugin? It's available to anyone.

I have an application with a CardScrollView as activity. Ok Glass => My App => Ok Glass => Next Page Or OK Glass => Previous Page Would it be possible to skip the second "Ok Glass" ? The best would be to let the Voice Command always activated but I don't know if it's possible. It is currently not possible to trigger contextual voice commands without the "ok glass" cue: the main reasons are to prevent false positive and narrow down the window when the microphone is listening for commands. I actually did this for my Glass app. Take a look here: https://github.com/RIVeR-Lab/google_glass_driver

According to the system voice command docs , you can open an application with a voice command. e.g. OK Google - open foobar . Also according to the docs, this Works by default; no specific intent. In my sample development app, this isn't working. I've tried adding a few combinations of action and category permutations to the intent-filter, but no luck so far. I'm targeting a minimum SDK of 23, testing on a device with 6.0.1. Should this work, and if so, what are the changes to a new empty activity project I need to enable it? As far as I am aware, Google simply iterates over a list of

I have did a lot for research and tried offline pocket sphinx but it is taking surrounding voice it is taking and reacting my app differently. Is there any Google offline app for above kitkat 4.4.. i am trying it from 2 week. Thank for your valuable answer. Details: When the activity starts first text has to read the content (Text to speech) after it complete, reading voice recognition has to take voice and as per command ex: (next, previous, forward, option, 1, 2, 3, 4 etc). As per command it has to recognize and react to it in onresult method. Error: i am getting error after taking some
