Qt-API for Speech recognition
Hello,
Is there a convenient Qt-API for controlling apps via speech?
If not, I am considering to evaluate one as OS-Project, Is anyone interested to join?
It could be a wrapper around available APIs (e.g Nuance).
Regards,
Valentin Heinitz

There is Simon Listens, which is open source recognizition based off KDE, maybe you can use it for your purposes.

Hello Smar,
Thank you very much, I was not aware of this project. However, my first impression from docu was – it is not very mature.
What I am thinking about is not an application or a particular speech recognition engine, but a Qt-Wrapper for existing SR frameworks.
The purpose is to help developers making their decision for using Qt in SR-Projects. My first step would be to make a Qt-wrapper for Nuance.
Best regards,
Valentin Heinitz

I just thought that if Simon would have something like API… Like KDE projects often have. Maybe that’s not case this time.
I recently started project QtSpeech available on gitorius, to provide common API to tts engines available on Mac,Windows and maybe to festival on Linux, now it contains only draft files, but I will commit soon working implementation for Mac. Later I can also consider including connection to speech recognition API for Mac and windows.
It might be worth keeping an eye on this: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTMOBILITY-1170

Hope the TTS and speech recognition APIs will coming soon in Qt. Android has it, so i hope Qt also can have this feature in both Symbian and MeeGo/Maemo.
waiting for QT to have TTS and speech recognition APIsFor QT as in QuickTime related suggestions please refer to their support forums.
Let’s not be too mean. I’m sure that though he misspelled Qt by typing QT, he sure meant Qt. For which other reasons he would be posting to this forum in the first place ;)
