Speech Recognition and PowerPoint

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 14 years ago

So i want to use speech recognition to work with Microsoft PowerPoint, I was thinking of using the speech recognition to match what you are saying with slides, like if you had a slide with something like "Watermelons are delicious." and you said "Watermelon" it would go to that slide. I was planning to use it for song lyrics so when the artist sang the words it would switch to that slide and I want it to be able to like go back to previous slides and skip ahead to advancing slides, like if an artist started at the chorus and then went back to the intro.

    Kris,

     

    I would recommend just making a movie for the project. It will always be the same right?

     

     

    Otherwise, you need to create triggered events based on the sound. You know, "if this sound - do that action"

     

    I think this can all be done with software, like Colecago said. Look for "triggering pc actions with sound" - or something to that effect.

     

    Create triggers for power point interactive slide show.

    Good luck.
