Blue Tooth/Voice Command Recognition

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the need for a Bluetooth-enabled voice command recognition system capable of sending up to 20 words to Motorola HC08 or HC11 microcontrollers. A trainable voice chip with a quick response time of around 50 milliseconds is desired. Participants suggest that significant computing power, comparable to a Pentium 4, may be necessary for effective voice recognition, which raises concerns about compatibility with older microcontrollers. They also mention the potential for using ASICs found in cell phones for limited speech recognition applications. The original poster expresses frustration with existing resources and seeks more specific guidance on available technologies.

I'd like to send, via bluetooth, a small number of commands--perhaps as many as 20 words. I'd like to send the decoded commands along to one of the motorola HC08 or HC11 family of microcontrollers.

The voice chip needs to be trainable and faily fast. Perhaps 50 msec delay.

Does anyone know who manufactures bluetooth recievers or speaker independent voice decoders? This arena is new to me.

You're going to need computing power probably equivalent to a Pentium 4 to do voice recognition. Why would you couple that to an ancient 8-bit microcontroller?

There may be some ASICS or something that help with this kind of limited speech recognition -- I've seen some cell phones with voice recognition for dialing numbers from the phone number list in the phone, for example. The wikipedia.org entry on Speech Recognition is pretty well filled out. Maybe start there, and look into the cell phone application angle to see if there are ASICs available already to give you the limited recognition you are looking for...

Thanks berkeman.

My wife has her cell phone rigged up for word comparison. You program it by associating a spoken name with a phone number in your address book. To get it to dial the number, you say "call" and then the name--and it all fits in a cell phone, of course.

Thanks for helping me look into it better. I could take this approch as a last resort.

BTW, I did already try Wiki. They weren't all that helpful with the nitty-gritty.

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'
Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...
Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'
Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
