Hello Everyone.

I am currently in progress on my own homemade robot.
IN addition to automation control and RC control I would like to venture into the world of voice activated controll. Any ideas?

What exactly are you using to control your robot? You can get boards that will allow you to use a limited amount of voice commands, say around 25. Or you could use a program running on a computer. That would be way more flexible but, on the other hand you have a size problem to deal with.

This has something about the first option. Never worked with it myself but I think that it is pretty good. Good luck with your project.

Hi Mark
...I would like to venture into the world of voice activated controll. Any ideas?


I would use a VR Stamp from Sensory,
The VR stamp module is a reasonable price from Total robots ( now owned by Active robots)
http://www.totalrobots.com/speech-sound-speech-rec-c-24_25.html

However I think the development kit is an unreasonable price. Don't these companies where there biggest markets are?
Mikro Elektronika make the easy vr stamp kit a a good price but due to some software issue they currently have put sales on hold:
