Hello,

today i work a little bit with the EZB Software.

I make a new Project and i added 1x "Speech Recognition" and 1x "Speech Settings"

I made a new Phrase

for Example "Hello Robot" and Command Say( "Nice to see you" )

So everything fine .. my Phrase will be recognize ( i see it in the small window) but no sound form the PC speaker ( I must be " Nice to see you")

So the easiest thing, but i dont get it!

What i do wrong?

Boris

PS:

I still work without a EZB4 Controller only Notebook + Webcam/Mic

Hi,

one information:

I am using Windows 7 64bit

I was checking diffrent Windows voices and there i found out that it gives some more problems with the voices on 64bit then on 32bit Systems.

But also on my big Desktop i have still the original englisch "Anna" and on my Notebook a better voice called "Adam" but on both i hear them on the speaker, so i think there is also not the mistake.

DJ,

The issue Rentaprinta is having is that when the speech is recognized, it isnt firing the command. I was able to connect to his computer with Team Viewer and made the following script which worked fine when executed.


$testingvariable = &quot;testing&quot;

In the variable watch list, the variable and the value show up.

From the speech control, I then made this command when Testing was said.


$testing = &quot;12345&quot;

This variable didn't show up in the variable watch list. I also tried to have the command call the first script above and it wasn't called.

Can you or anyone else offer any suggestions?

Thanks David

@rentaprinta.

Looking at the photos you supplied, the confidence levels in the debug window is showing low confidence. In this case if ARC thinks it hears you say something but it's not to clear, ARC will say for example...

Low confidence: (what it thinks it heard) (0.35)

but it won't play the script mapped to that phrase, even if that phrase is correct. If ARC thinks it hears you clearly, you won't get the "Low confidence" message in the debug window and you will only see the phrase you just spoke. What you can do in this instance is open the config setting menu on the speech recognition control, and at the top left of the settings page you will see a drop down menu where you can change the confidence levels. Change it to a lower number, save it, and try again. Basicly what is needed is for the confidence level number of your spoken phrase to be equal or higher than what the level is set to within the speech recognition menu.

Also something to keep in mind is using a good quality speech recognition microphone, setting your microphone levels within Windows (also can be accessed via the speech recognition menu mentioned above), and to train your computers speech recognition to better understand you. All of which will help improve the confidence levels and help to understand your spoken phrases better.

Hope that helps.
