Speech Recognition System - Customization

i7 Lover · 14 Sep 2011

I'm pretty sure a lot of you guys watched the movie Iron Man (2008) or Iron Man 2.

Iron Man has like this super computer interface system that monitors his suit, home, life, work. Pretty much a life assistant.

What I want is to change the voice in my Speech Recognition System to that British accent J.A.R.V.I.S. (Iron Man's super computer) had in the movie.

Moreover, When I say " Open notepad". I want the computer to open notepad and reply by saying "Opening notepad".

Is that possible in any way or means?
And if not, is there a J.A.R.V.I.S. like software?

FYI... Voice Recognition is the act of a computer recognizing and acting on a humans verbal command. Voice-to-text is another use of this technology.

A screen reader or text-to-voice, is typically used by the blind or visually impaired to read the screen to the user in a computer synthisized voice. The most popular "reader" is called JAWS and made by freedom scientific, and yes it allows the user to choose an accent such as british... it even includes both male and female U.K. voices. However a reader such as this isnt cheap! There are several freebies out there, such as: Read Please, and Natural Reader.

However, you want a system that does both... even answers your commands, and I am not aware of any such "hybrid" product!

Unfortunately those are MAC's...

I did a few searches and found this... Not a british voice, but very cool!
