Glass GDk : Contextual voice commands without the “Ok Glass”

Question

I have an application with a CardScrollView as activity.

Ok Glass => My App => Ok Glass => Next Page
                  Or  OK Glass => Previous P         


        

Answer 1

It is currently not possible to trigger contextual voice commands without the "ok glass" cue: the main reasons are to prevent false positive and narrow down the window when the microphone is listening for commands.

Answer 2

I actually did this for my Glass app. Take a look here: https://github.com/RIVeR-Lab/google_glass_driver/tree/master/android/RobotManager/src/com/riverlab/robotmanager

You are going to be interested in the VoiceRecognitionThread, Vocabulary, and MessageListActivity.

The functionality you described is implemented in both MessageListActivity and VoiceRecognitionThread.

The vocabulary is just support for multi-layered commands. You only need to worry about it if you plan on using voice commands that could branch off to other commands. For example, in my application I was controlling a robot. Commands could look like "drive forward" "drive forward quickly" "drive forward now" or "drive forward quickly delay five". You can see examples in the xml files here: https://github.com/RIVeR-Lab/google_glass_driver/tree/master/test

Hope this helps!
