Homes Appliances Controlled Using Speech Recognition in Wireless Network Environment

This paper highlights the development of a human voice command system that is able to activate the electrical appliances at home in wireless environment. The idea is to establish a wireless connection between a client computer and a server in a real application. It is developed especially to assist disabled person to do their house chores. Via the wireless communication system, this system utilizes the remote voice recognition system server to translate the voice input received from a serviced client computer into a symbolic data file to be processed by the client's computer. The wireless technology implemented in this project is the Wi-Fi network and the computer server utilizes the GUI manager for implementing the speech recognition system. The GUI system is developed using the Microsoft Visual Basic.net software and the speech recognition software used is the Microsoft Speech (SAPI). In conclusion, from the result analyses, the performance of the system depends on the wireless coverage and distance, voice input type and the environment condition.
