Speech to Text

[jreedaccentus]

I am looking for a simple speech to text vi using microsoft voice recognition engine? Can anyone help?

 I have been working with MSAgent but have had difficulty building a speech to text program.  I would like to simply output the recognized speech to a string. Any ideas?

Hello,

We actually have an example on the NI website that uses Microsoft Agent through ActiveX. You can find it here:

Voice Recognition in LabVIEW

It has two examples: one for MSAgent and the other for Dragon Naturally Speaking. Also, you may want to take a look at this thread:

Hope this helps!

Thank you for the reply.

 I have had some success using those VI's, however I am having difficulty displaying the voice input as a text string.  I would like to simply display the speech that is sent into a microphone.  Is this possible without specifying voice commands?  The voice command VI compares what is recieved by the microphone to the voice command menu, I would like to just display what is recieved by the microphone.  ie.) A simple speech to text program.  Any ideas?

  Thanks

Hello,

I'm not sure that MSAgent is actually capable of doing this directly. From what I've read online, MSAgent is limited to just that: command input. I did a search for this and found the following post from Microsoft's MSAgent newsgroup:

http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.msagent/browse_thread/thread/17ba6c4408bca98c/b8bb2e...

According to this, you'll have to program SAPI directly. Unfortunately, I have no experience in using this particular ActiveX interface, and it sounds rather complicated. Perhaps someone out there has?

You replied to a 11 years old post, and the OP was not logged in since that time.

Anyway, your question comes up time by time in the forum. The answer is that, if you want to do this as a student project, forget it 🙂 Speech recognition is far not a trivial task. So if you want to code it from scratch, it will take many people and a few years 🙂 Have a look at such products from Google, Apple and Amazon, took some time to come up with a not really 100%  working solution...

However, if you find some third party SDK which can do speech to text, you could call it from LabVIEW. But at this point this is not really a LabVIEW question any more...

Actually did you google for these keywords? Just one link: https://lavag.org/topic/16121-speech-to-text-conversionspeech-recognition-using-labview/

Did you read Block's 7 years old answer?

It's still valid!

Why should we?

What have you tried and where are you stuck?

Do you even use LabVIEW for this task?

I am using microsoft speechSDK but I don't know the code.

I need help with the code.
