Using Automatic Speech Recognition for Manipulation And Control of Robotic Platforms

The linking of humanoid robotic platforms in people's daily life is advancing by leaps and bounds, day after day the development and implementation of these technological tools in people's daily activities is more frequent; this fact establishes that the interaction and/or communication process between human-robot must be optimal, and that is where a wide field of research and experimentation appears, allowing a clear and fluid communication between the robot and its respective users. Therefore, this article proposes a basic strategy associated with automatic voice recognition (action commands) for the interaction and control of the humanoid robotic platform NAO. This work describes a solution composed by two operational blocks, the first block refers to the use of the Sphinx CMU Library for the recognition of the action commands for the robot and the second block describes the commands needed for the locomotion process of the platform humanoid NAO.
