Speech Recognition Client

[firstinflight]

Not sure how many of you have already built a speech recognition client to interface with FS or Radar Contact. I thought it would be worth sharing the success.

Late last year i began this work on writing a client that could interpret natural language inputs and relay it to Radar Contact. That work got completed last weekend.

The speech client is built on top of basic Windows speech recognition, accepts a pre-defined vocabulary and relays all commands to Radar Contact.

The client works either on  the same PC that Radar Contact is running on or any other WideFS connected PC.

Further, the client is able to accept a button press on the yoke and use it to switch speech recognition on (emulate PTT), recognize speech and send a keypress to the RC.

A combination of a small .NET program, trapping key presses on the PC running the speech client and finally FSUIPC KeySend capability lies behind the working of this speech client.

Thought i would share.
