[VB.NET] Speed Recongition SDK

[Crap i spelt title speed my bad ahhahaa]{change speed = Speach}
hi i was thinking of how cool it would be to have a program that had a speech to recongition like so u can set something and you say " Shell Notepad " then it checks under a shell listbox and find notepad and runs it (so if u want notepad to be firefox u can change it) but u get it custimizable is this possible with vbnet? do i need some speficic sdk .dll or sumthn yah and thanks alot =)
links are perfifly fine :thumb:

You would need to somehow record voice.

Then compare the voice signal to a base reference with a decent amount of room for error, as no 2 voices are the same, and the odd's of you replicating your EXACT tone and speed is slim to none.

Easiest way would be to have,

1. End User sets a base, Example, say "Firefox". Say it again, maybe even again. This will give you 3 bases.

Now, Maybe add a +- 15-25% to pitch, and speed. If current voice fits into that criteria, then load app.

This will be no EASY task, and there is no SDK(known), as a SDK stands for 'Software Development Kit', and I doubt there is such for this. You will more than likely be wanting some sort of voice recording and reference controls.

You should do your research before making baseless suggestion so you don't sound silly when someone else comes along and says that Microsoft has a Speech SDK and there's a super easy example of this that can be found here.

The example gives a basic understanding of how to utilize the SDK. The MS documentation will give the OP a better understanding of how to use its specific functions to fit his needs.

That being said, LoGiCAnti, this may or may not be easy. But either way, I suggest you do the research and figure out what's involved. There's most likely not a copy and paste example, so you'll have to actually do some work, but it certainly seems possible for the average user.

You should reread the part, where i said "i DOUBT their is a SDK".

Meaning, I didnt see this happening. However, you obviously found one.

That's why I said you should have done the research. It took me 1 minute =/
