What did you say?
As I often talked about text-to speech, why we do non talk about speech recognition? As also https://realpython.com/ talked about this topic, I want to share a little code here to give a sample of its possible utilization.
import time
import speech_recognition as sr
def elaborate_recording(recognizer, microphone):
if not isinstance(recognizer, sr.Recognizer):
raise TypeError("A problem with the recognizer")
if not isinstance(microphone, sr.Microphone):
raise TypeError("A problem with the microphone")
with microphone as source:
recognizer.adjust_for_ambient_noise(source)
audio = recognizer.listen(source)
elaboration = {
"success": True,
"error": None,
"transcription": None
}
try:
elaboration["transcription"] = recognizer.recognize_google(audio)
except sr.RequestError:
elaboration["success"] = False
elaboration["error"] = "API not available"
except sr.UnknownValueError:
elaboration["error"] = "I did not understand"
return elaboration
if __name__ == "__main__":
print("I start the recognizer and the mic.. start talking")
recognizer = sr.Recognizer()
microphone = sr.Microphone()
print("Dici qualcosa adesso / Say something now ... pause 3 second ... continue talking")
time.sleep(3)
print("NOW!")
guess = elaborate_recording(recognizer, microphone)
print(guess["transcription"])
