The hardware itself is pretty straightforward. There is an Arduino Nano to run the speech recognition algorithm and a MAX9814 microphone amplifier to capture the voice commands.

Bringing speech recognition to the low-power microcontroller you’d find in an Arduino sounds like the work of a mad scientist or Ph.D. candidate, but that’s exactly what [Arjo Chakravarty] did.

The Arduino gets a Bluetooth attachment and a set of code. Then you'll need Android Meets Robots, an app that lets you pair voice recognition with any Bluetooth module.

Arduino will soon have a standalone voice recognition and synthesiser which has ‘full sentence capability’ and a 2GB internal dictionary. It can be programmed to recognise almost any complete English ...

Arduino is a great platform for those wanting to get into both software and hardware development, but incorporating voice commands into these projects is not without its challenges. MOVI is a ...

Peripherals specialist Logitech says it’s working on adding voice recognition and search functions to its Hamrony line of uiniversal remote controls. Logitech VP Bryan McLeod said the company ...

They've already implemented an ultrasonic range detector so the 'bot can override the operator and prevent itself from running off a cliff (although we'd like to suggest mounting one on the rear ...
