Vista Speech Regognition API

This will teach your program to read text from the voice it "hears" using .NET 3

so this is how it goes :

1. Go to the references of your project and add System.Speech.Recognition
2. Create a new instance of the SpeechRecognitionEngine
   SpeechRecognitionEngine sre = new SpeechRecognitionEngine(new CultureInfo("en-US"));
3. Set a file to read from and a dictionary to use:
   sre.SetInputToWaveFile("c:\\test.wav");
   sre.LoadGrammar(new DictationGrammar());
4. Now read
   RecognitionResult rr = sre.Recognize();
5. If something fails inside the Recognize() then it returns null , otherwise rr.Text will get you the text you are looking for ;

now the problem is and it stays unsolved , that out of the box , the engine does not usually hit the correct text . Good luck and mail me if you have ideas

SpeechRecognitionEngine sre = new SpeechRecognitionEngine(new CultureInfo("en-US"));

sre.SetInputToWaveFile("c:\\test.wav");

sre.LoadGrammar(new DictationGrammar());

RecognitionResult rr = sre.Recognize();

if (rr != null)

{

Console.WriteLine(rr.Text);

}

else

{

Console.WriteLine("Recognition failed");

}

Console.ReadKey();
