Text-to-speech (voice generation) and speech-to-text (voice recognition) APIs?
Is there a comprehensive list of known APIs for desktop or browser environments? Michael Levy I'll rehash and update an answer from Speech recognition in C or Java or PHP? . This is by no means comprehensive, but it might be a start for you From watching these questions for few months, I've seen most developer choices break down like this: Windows folks - use the System.Speech features of .Net or Microsoft.Speech and install the free recognizers Microsoft provides. Windows 7 includes a full speech engine. Others are downloadable for free. There is a C++ API to the same engines known as SAPI.
