    I downloaded and installed your Demo.apk on my 2.3 phone and 4.1 eight inch tablet that successfully uses text to speech and voice recognition with my programs and nothing worked with your Demo.apk. I wish I could help you more.

    Any chance for iOS?


    And, in essence, I could compare a word spoken?
    So, in my case, if someone asked, "who will win the game?",
    I could potentially pick out the first word, "who" and so on?

    And then in turn, compare what words were said?

    Code (csharp):
    1.  
    2. if (word_1 == "who"){
    3. ////
    4. }
    5.

    There is a way to start an event when a predetermined word is said?
    And when you add this "
    I will add voice recognition without popping speaker window...."?

    Hi Vishnu,

    Your plugin looks interesting. I have some questions about how it works.

    Does your plugin do the speech recognition itself? Or does it just pass through to the Android SDK?
    Is it speaker independent? Or do I have to train it? If you trained it, how many speakers did you use?
    Can you post some example code of how to use/call your plugin?

    Thanks in advance for your help and patience in answering my questions.

    SES

    Hello SES

    Android supports only google speech Recognition...The only way is to make use of Google speech recognition.
    The hard part is to embed it into Unity Framework.I solved that and made this plugin.

    My plugin is easy to use and I included clear documentation inside the package to guide through.

    I can help you if you have any doubts to use the plugin in your projects.

    Thank You,
    Vishnu Gude

    Hello - I downloaded your plugin and the code works easily enough.

    Is there a way to stop/suppress/hide the google window from covering my game.

    We can start another activity through code... I will help You...please add me in gtalk friend.

    gtalk id : gvishnupraveen@gmail.com

    It is beacause you are using more than one plugin ( activities ) .... There is some logic to utilise more than 2 plugins ata time in Unity.

    Unless you want to support Project Tango, Durovis Dive, cardboard,and much more all by yourself the answer is useless - you don't get to be the only activity, in point of fact this can be done without creating an activity at all, which is more generally useful. In this products current form, it only works if its the active custom activity - which roughly translates in my world to 'speech and nothing else, or everything else and no speech' - Anyway, I've solved the problem for myself - you don't need to support me in this, I'm not moving forward with the product

    Multi activities management is problem from unity side bro...We can start an activity only by startActivity in android that uses manifest ...We can rectify in unity case.., There are many ways to manage multi plugins. Please understand the scenario friend. .... I made this plugin with my hardwork and it is very useful for all kind of applications. Even it has a handy manifest one can easily manage. please if you have errors or any new requirements I can help you and make them resolve....

    Sounds great. Quick question though. So I'm assuming it works pretty much like using "Ok Google", and everything you say is converted into text.

    That is fine, but what I want to know is can it use a list of valid words. So these things can be a bit inaccurate, but increase massively in accuracy when a sub-list of words is used rather than the full vocabulary.

    For example if you had a list of objects you could select, say "Cash", "Knife", "Gun", and "Food", then would you just call the plugin with what the user is saying and then hope that it translated it correctly? So if you had said "Gun", but this translated to "Fun", then it isn't any of the options. You would then have to use your own code to work out which is the closest word. Not impossible, but a bit of a pain.

    However, if you could supply "Cash", "Knife", "Gun", and "Food" to the plugin, then get it to decide which one you had said from the options given, then that would be perfect. Can it do this? If not then an internal comparison check comparing what Google thinks was said and the supplied list, to produce the best match, would be good enough. So if the standard function just gives back what was said in a string, then a second function that passes in a list of words/phrases, and brings back the word/phrase that was most like what would said.

    Cheers

    Thanks for the suggestion bro....I like these kind of ideas.. I will surely try to incorporate this idea..

    At present , it will give you list of words in order of score...I already added score component.
    Suppose, If you say Gun.. it will give you 3 words with scores...But the word with highest score will give you as the result... You can make use of all the similar words and its scores...

    For the next release I am planning to add more languages to support and I am also thinking to remove speech with popup option....It became old...So only concentrating on speech without any popup/dialogs... That is nice feature anyone can use it in many number of ways..

    Add me in skype.. I will be in touch
