- the lower confidence setings in speech will come in handy as for some reason Sue's computer has a tough time recognizing her voice sometimes... She has done the Windows voice training but I think it is because her voice doesn't carry well...
Thanks for the update

DJ you are a champ. speech rec. is now working in french.
My family and friends will be stunt by the interaction done in their own language.
Again: BRAVO!
I'm guessing you've already tried this, but I've helped a lot of people set up their computers for speech recognition, and 95% of the time, the solution is to lower the mic input level. I've got mine working so I can talk at regular volume in Trade Shows without being near the mic and it works brilliantly.
For what it's worth, my mic input is 74 with a +10 db boost. I've found that a large percentage of computers fall within a 10 range (64-74)... not all of them, but most of them.
I'd suggest trying adjusting the input level by 5 each time and start with a simple command like "robot stop".
I've been working with ezrobot for about 2 years. I've known DJ for about 7, so I've seen the incredible progression in his robots and software. I just haven't been around the forums much
I'm working with educators to help bring ezrobot into schools and ensure that our young people have a strong robotics background, as those skills are going to become paramount over the next decade.
