Why Not Use Google Api?

Skip to comments   Jump to end

It was suggested on another forum that we tie in to Google API for a Natural detection. The voice rec that we currently have works well for me. But, I understand that the Google app works without any training or personal dictionary. Just download it, tie it in and BANG! use it without any problems.

Just a thought.

I don't think the speed is the reason we don't use Google API. It's likely because Google's API is pretty new for a start.

While I said it is slow it may not be too slow depending on the application. But for conversations it would be like talking to someone over a satellite feed with a 1-2 second delay. Personally I wouldn't be happy with that.

You could always do a work around and use whatever API you like, which then sends the info to ARC via one of the various methods. A middle man if you will.

What I meant was, the robot having heard what you say could do a voice search if it does not know what you are talking about and use google voice search to get the answer. Even an EZ-Pedia.
