I just found this new Speech-to-Speech program for Android called Edwin. It's pretty awesome!! You simply say or ask it a question and it will reply to you with the proper response.
Here's the link to more info and a video demo:Android Zoom - Edwin, Speech-to-Speech

I just found a very cool app called Edwin, Speech-to-Speech in appbrain installed and must say its makes you feel like you have truly a SMART phone. asked it weather, time, open app, spell a word, definition of word etc etc and it spoke it everytime, tried to stump it with weather in hong kong and it told me! anyway it takes voice command to a very big next level.
View 49 Replies View RelatedHow to I properly parameterize the speech recognizer so that it can more easily recognize the words that the user will probably say?
As far as I can tell there is no way.
I believe this site is wrong: http://www.4feets.com/2009/04/speech-recognition-in-android-sdk-15/
CODE:............
Will give a hint to the recognizer that you might say those words. However, it appears to do absolutely nothing. It also conflicts with the google documentation which says:
"An ArrayList of the potential results when performing ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH. Only present when RESULT_OK is returned." This hints that the array is a return value NOT an input.
To test this out try adding: ArrayList< String > potentialResults = new ArrayList< String >(); potentialResults.add("cumin"); and try to get the speech recognizer to recognize it. You will find it very difficult.
How to properly control the speech recognizer?
I am developing an app that uses the speech recognizer but I only want the speech recognizer to listen for speech for x number of seconds regardless of when the last speech input was or was not recognized. I looked through the speech recognizer documentation and I didn't see parameter to set the exact time the speech recognizer runs for. How I could accomplish this?

Does anyone know more details about how to switch between these languages? Is there a way to know (programatically) which language is active for speech recognition on a certain device? (maybe in Japan the only have Japanese ... but can I get this information somehow ... like a property or anything?).

Is there a program were I can import the GPX or KML file and that program exports audio as "within 100 meters go left". A sort of GPS navigation but with audio export and the possibility to imort an GPX and/or KML file. It is necessary that the program can say it in audio and not only text because my Nexus One will be in my backpack.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've done a lot of searching for this & haven't found a good solution. Please forgive me if it's already posted, I've really tried to find it!I have a G1, and a Motorola bluetooth headset. I am searching for an app that will speak incoming text messages out loud, both through speaker and bluetooth. Voice-to-text for replies would be a nice bonus but not mandatory.I've tried drivesafe.ly and it does work with the native Android messaging to read texts out loud, but it's speaker-only and will not work with bluetooth headsets. Also, there's no reply via speech-to-text. It also won't recognize or work with Handcent or other messaging programs at all.I am currently trying Handcent, and while I like a lot of the features, it doesn't seem to have any bluetooth support. Also, it doesn't seem automatically speak texts upon receipt although I've seen posts saying it will? There is a button you can click upon receiving an incoming SMS message popup, but by the time you look down & find the button to click it to "read" the text out loud it's kind of pointless. And the voice recognition for speech-to-text is really wonky, but if the rest of it worked (automatically reading messages out loud, and through bluetooth headsets).It seems like it would be such a commonly used app. Is there a good SMS program with these features?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an XML page which m able to display on webview and also able to convert it to sppech by using text to speech API provided by android.
I have stored that XML page in a string variable and hence able to convert it to speech which takes string variable as an input. But my problem is that if the xml has some href tags or imgsrc tags those are also read out by TTs.
Can u please tell me how to overcome this? I jst want the text part which is displayed in webview to be read out not the image URL or something else.
Thoughts on which works better. I don't like the better keyboard voice integration as it does not have a dedicated button. I am really debating between talk to me and speech keyboard, unless there are others I am not aware of.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow can we have text to speech happen through bluetooth?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a 2.1 sdk(eclair) version Samsung device, which has virtual keyboard with a microphone indicator to support speech to text (STT). Our application is mostly a text entry application and uses Inputconnection class and committext method to recognize the inputs and put all the entered text on display. In swype input mode, if we press the microphone, the voice recognition automatically runs(shows recording interface, records, synthesizes and sends text to commit text, and hence it is working. However, for "Android keyboard" input , the recording interface automatically shows up, however, we do not receive committext callback, so nothing is updated on our text box after the recording. So, seems we have 2 options:
1. Disable only the mike/microphone keys visibility on the Android keypad. How can this be done?
2. Have the STT to work on the Android keyboard. Seems that the keypad is automatically starting a recording interface - hence we do not know how to even integrate the voice recognition program given in the sdk 2.1 examples VoiceRecognition.java file. How can we detect the microphone/mike key was pressed? Or how can we do this?
I want to use the speech to text api in android, but I don't want to be slowed down by those dialogs. Is it possible to use the functionality without them?
