Hi i havent built my robot yet but i am playing around with the parts and ARC. When i tried to set up voice reconition so that you say something and the robot does it for example moving a servo with voice commands. What i need help with is how to set it up. Every time i try it does not work.i need help setting it up and i needed to ask if i need a microphone to set this up
I am trying to set up a continuous rotation servo on the port D0
We need more info.... What exactly is not working..... To start with you have to have Windows 7 or 8 and an external microphone if your PC does not have one.... Also have you trained your PC to recognize your voice yet?
Basically i want to set up a servo to follow my voice commands.
I think i went on the wrong categorie am i suppose to go to sound servo pc or sound servo ezb
My computer does not have a microphone and i do not have a microphone connected to the ezb
You need a microphone in order to use speech recognition...Sound servo does not use a microphone it moves a servo based on sound level output from your ezb speaker or your PC speakers.... The EZB4 itself does not have a microphone, nor can one be added to it...
I was under the impression (perhaps mistakenly) that if you use Sound servo (ezb) that is does not use the PC mic for audio level detection, but rather some internal sensing...maybe magic....we can't out rule magic or witchcraft, LOL
But Richard is 100% correct for "Speech Recognition" you must use a mic. There is no way around that (currently...remember, we can't rule out witchcraft).
You're right Justin.... No mic is involved with using sound servo... it's all output level sensing (not sound related, meaning as you mentioned "internal")....
