Arduino shield goes all Siri-like




Check this one out. Arduino now has a standalone voice recognition and synthesiser, and apparently it doesn’t require an internet connection or cloud-based processing.


It is a hardware shield which is claimed to be ‘Siri-like’ – it will recognise full sentences and has a 2GB internal dictionary. It can be programmed to identify almost any complete English sentence and build a dialogue system to change its vocabulary.

Audeme is the company behind the MOVI Arduino shield, which is voice recognition system that is not cloud-based and uses 200 customisable sentences.

MOVI Voice Control for Arduino adds what the developers call “full sentence recognition capability” to an Arduino maker design project.

The add-on m
odule is an off-line speech recognizer and voice synthesizer, which the developer says can recognise several hundreds of user defined sentences, and does not require an internet connection or an auxiliary PC.
Power consumption is under 3W.
The device, which was funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign last year, will respond in the same way to a repeated sentence every time, no matter who is talking to it, while its programmable ‘call sign’ means users can personalise the device to their project.
MOVI is stackable, with connections from the header pins.
Audeme is a Californian company founded by Gerald Friedland and Bertrand Irissou at the University of California at Berkeley.
