Description
Speech recognition is often needed for installations and in various other contexts. This project should develop an object for speech recognition, based on the CMU Sphinx library. In addition, easy to use patches should be created, which demonstrate for non-experts how to use this external.
Sphinx is a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer released under a BSD style license. It is also a collection of open source tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems.
