How to Navigate a Google Glass GDK Immersion Application using Voice Command only?

Question

How would I go about coding a voice trigger to navigate Google Glass Cards?

This is how I see it happening:

1) \"Ok Glass, Start My Program\"

2) Applicatio

I'm writing out the entire code in detail since it took me such a long time to get this working.. perhaps it'll save someone else valuable time.

This code is the implementation of Google Contextual Voice Commands as described on Google Developers here: Contextual voice commands

ContextualMenuActivity.java

   package com.drace.contextualvoicecommands;

    import android.app.Activity;
    import android.os.Bundle;
    import android.view.Menu;
    import android.view.MenuItem;
    import com.drace.contextualvoicecommands.R;
    import com.google.android.glass.view.WindowUtils;

    public class ContextualMenuActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle bundle) {
        super.onCreate(bundle);

        // Requests a voice menu on this activity. As for any other
        // window feature, be sure to request this before
        // setContentView() is called
        getWindow().requestFeature(WindowUtils.FEATURE_VOICE_COMMANDS);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreatePanelMenu(int featureId, Menu menu) {
        if (featureId == WindowUtils.FEATURE_VOICE_COMMANDS) {
            getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
            return true;
        }
        // Pass through to super to setup touch menu.
        return super.onCreatePanelMenu(featureId, menu);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onMenuItemSelected(int featureId, MenuItem item) {
        if (featureId == WindowUtils.FEATURE_VOICE_COMMANDS) {
            switch (item.getItemId()) {
                case R.id.dogs_menu_item:
                    // handle top-level dogs menu item
                    break;
                case R.id.cats_menu_item:
                    // handle top-level cats menu item
                    break;
                case R.id.lab_menu_item:
                    // handle second-level labrador menu item
                    break;
                case R.id.golden_menu_item:
                    // handle second-level golden menu item
                    break;
                case R.id.calico_menu_item:
                    // handle second-level calico menu item
                    break;
                case R.id.cheshire_menu_item:
                    // handle second-level cheshire menu item
                    break;
                default:
                    return true;
            }
            return true;
        }
        // Good practice to pass through to super if not handled
        return super.onMenuItemSelected(featureId, item);
    }
    }
