Fifth Sense An Audio-Info Generator

Abstract - Our goal is to provide the computer with a natural interface including the ability to understand human speech for making it easier to use for the visually-impaired people. For this purpose we propose a way to operate it and harness the power of the Internet with voice commands. It is an intelligent system which enables the user to instruct computer to perform actions through voice commands and also form repository of commands and map them to appropriate actions. At first the user initiates a command by his voice through the microphoneand then the recognition software of the proposed system will take over to recognize the command. If the recognition is succeeded or matched with one of the given voice command then it will perform the operation according to speakers command. The operations include downloading parsing and reading RSS Feeds downloading and reading users emails reading out text files on users system and updating the user with latest news like live cricket scores weather forecasts etc. In our proposed system we have used Microsofts API called Speech Application Programming Interface for text to speech 26 speech to text conversion and various Java APIs for the underlying operation.
