microphone object for voice command
Hello, I wanted to know if any of the programmers is creating a function that allows you to have the value in dB of a microphone connected to 'the sound card input. this is a very important application for voice command, you know something? why the microphone extension object is no longer available but is still present in your database?
Thank
Re: microphone object for voice command
Lots of people have tried writing voice-command software in MMF2 over the years, with varying degrees of freedom
I can assure you that having the pitch and dB won't be enough; real-world text-to speech engines use large-complicated temporal differencing engines on-top of learning algorithms (which are too computationally expensive to use MMF events and loops for)
The great difficulty in STT is the massive number of possible phrases which each input sequence must be compared with, this however offers a compromise.
Using very-few command statements, eg...
-Computer
-Start
-end
-Browser
-Warcraft III
It is possible to create a system which works purely in MMF and in an acceptable time frame.
Good luck
Re: microphone object for voice command
I just need to have the 'intensity of the volume signal obtained from a microphone. Then of course it is visible through a bar trasport, you have presente a vumeter? I wanted to do this, but it is possible in the future? someone is working on this feature or is found with active x?
Regards
Re: microphone object for voice command
You can do it right now with either the pitch-object (no longer supported, so it will be hard to find)
or using ogg player and visualizer to playback a wav file recorded using MCI ( check my old posts for an example )
however unceremonious; the volume ( or magnitude ) of sound does not contain the information of words.
The frequency is what you need.
Anyway i'm pressed for time so, goodluck
Re: microphone object for voice command
I have lots of extensions with multimedia fusion dev, but it is possible that there is no extension that detects the frequency, volume, etc. of an audio signal. How can I do, there is a system?
VB.net is not possible to interface with MMF2 with a program created in VB.net? Help, I need this function, I just need something that detects the 'microphone input, any thing but I do not know where to find it.
MCI= ?????
Re: microphone object for voice command
I've seen a application to record audio input. It used MCI Object.

http://clickteam.info/looki/Extensions/Released/PitchDetection.zip You can use this, I'm not proud of it because it doesn't work very well and you can't sell your application with it because of the license.
Re: microphone object for voice command
Darkwire is also developing the PortAudio microphone extension :)
Re: microphone object for voice command
Finally, you know at what point has arrived? you can have a situation of his work directly from him?
Re: microphone object for voice command
By 'Darkwire' he basically means himself. I'm currently also working on an audio extension that can already stream the microphone input but I don't know if I will add pitch detection.
