SpeechRecognitionEngine speechEngine, can be a bit temperamental
So I’ve been testing the program I wrote as I go, I wasn’t expecting much, especially since my microphone has no quality at all. It’s been picking up my voice great … in fact … too great. I have it setup so I call “Computer” and like the kinect the vocal commands appear on the screen (with a GUI setup to be used with the kinect sensor). However, sometimes it mistakes my normal speech for that command. My original intent for the app was so I could shut down my computer from across the room when I no longer needed it on, but occasinally it mistakes random speech for the “shut down” commands and shuts down anyway! It’s funny sometimes, especially when you have a teamspeak channel full of people shouting “Computer!”, “Shut Down!” and having no success. Followed by a “Back me up”, “Knocked down” random call and my computer actually complying. Silly App :P.
