Re: Voice Recognition is required by Client

 

My 1990 Motorola carphone responded to "telephone turn on" to wake up. Granted a car is an enclosed space so the mike did not have to be very sensitive but that was 25 years ago. Anyway where's HAL when you need him?

My panel thinks someone says OK Crestron about once or twice a night, and it¡¯s usually audio from the TV that does it. Occasionally someone will be talking and the panel will think it heard the key word. ?I thought there was a way to turn down the sensitivity¡­. But I haven¡¯t gotten around to looking for it.

At the Master's class last year they had it programmed to answer to "OK Crestron" (as opposed to "OK Google").? So, you don't have to press a button unless you want to.? Your mileage may vary with how well it works.?


Re: Voice Recognition is required by Client

 

Another +1 for Voice Pod if you don't have internet. It's not Jarvis but it works pretty well once you learn it's phrases. I would LOVE to work with someone on getting the Amazon Echo to play nice with Crestron but you have to setup a server that they play nice with and that seems like more stuff to support than it is worth.

Re: Voice Recognition is required by Client

 

They were talking about adding wakeup phrases to the TSW-XX2s, I don't know if that's available yet or not.

Thanks Jeremy.


This would be for some basic AV and lights control in my gym, where not having to get off the machine to change the music / TV channels would be of benefit!

I had also forgotten that the TSW1052 (purportedly) does voice commands. This might be worth a play first, although I think you need to press a button first to make it listen (?)

Its time to replace the desktop PC.....

 

Hi Group,


I'm now at the stage where I need to replace my desktop PC. Currently I have an HP Core2 Duo 3.00 GHz system with 6GB RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX260 graphics card running two monitors.


I use it for programming (Crestron, Lutron, RTI, KNX), , D-Tools, Autocad (not often), and general MS Office stuff.


So what sort of spec should I be going for now?


I am thinking i7, 32GB RAM, 500GB SSD Drive, and ?? (insert suggestions here) graphics card...


I will be running a Philips 40" 4K display (probably in 1440P) and a dell 24" (in portrait mode for emails etc.)


Any suggestions as to spec that I should be aware of? i.e. would I be better with an i5 but add more memory or better graphics card? What graphics card is best bang for the buck??


What do you guys currently use spec wise that you are happy with.


I am happy to spend ?1K - ?2.5K on it but don't want to go overboard spending money on performance that just may not be required for my intended use.


TIA - Nick





Re: Voice Recognition is required by Client

 

VoicePod has connections for an external mic and speaker, so you can hide it in a rack somewhere and trigger via wakeup phrase ("Hello VoicePod") or a button on the touchpanel.

I have tested VoicePod for a conference-room scenario, and it works well for what it does.? The lack of free-form dialing killed it for that project (can't recognize a string of digits without prompting for each one).

The library of recognized commands can only be expanded without cooperation from VoicePod, which they offer as a paid service.? The library of speech files is the same way.

Keep in mind that it's not free-form text recognition like people are used to with Siri, it's strictly menu-based.? If your application fits well into the existing menus (designed for residential A/V control), you're golden.? If not, you need to pay for custom programming.

The 232 interface is sensible and easy to handle from Crestron.

I don't know of any alternatives that work without Internet connections.

The problem is that client don't want to get it through any other device or app. bcoz they will not allow anyone to any new device which is physically viewable and is not included in their interior design. They want the integration in the same app and specially push to talk will not be accepted by the client.

Please advise.

There was some chatter a few weeks ago about Dragon opening its software to 3rd party devs on iOS. ?It's never been confirmed but long suspected that Dragon provides the engine for Siri. If it is available, making it work would likely be no small feat. There's also been speculation that Siri will be opened up to devs in iOS10, which is still several months away, and, just a rumor at this point.?

All the Crestron voice recognition requires an internet connection and will not work without it.? It is only built into the Android based panels and uses Google's voice recognition service.?

If they open up the network, you might be able to make it work from the touchpanel as long as you have one of the Android ones.? I am fairly certain that Apple does not allow Crestron to use Siri for voice recognition purposes so the iPad would seem hopeless without a third party product.?

Hi Jeremy,

have you used VoicePod ?at all. If so any feedback?

I was considering giving it a go in my own home, but if your personal experience says its not so good then I will pass.

Check out VoicePod: ? Standalone (non-Internet) voice recognition for pre-configured phrases, with a 232 connection for control system integration.

Dear All,


I'm currently working on a project of a telecom company to design the AV system in their Board room.


My client requires Voice recognition for the controls from i-pad or Touch panel even very simple words like presentation or video conference or select.


Can anyone guide me if how is it possible as the internet connectivity to the system is not possible due to the limitations/policies of the company for any external device.

GLS EM MCU somebody did it work?

 

Can someone did this thing working?

I cant make it to work.

even i calibrate the CT still not working.

Then strange thing is, the code that i put always change the end character once i refresh the unit.

sample is?0203C04203F26EF25BA68, when i refresh it will change to?0203C04203F26EF25BA6A

Re: vtproe not loading pages

 

Java - WTF?? It's staggering the misinformation that gets bandied about.

It was an Adobe Flash update that has been fixed for two weeks now.? People should be UPGRADING.


Re: vtproe not loading pages

 

there is also known issue with the latest java update, you will need to reinstall an older version than the latest?


Re: vtproe not loading pages

 

See if you have more than one theme in the project settings. If you do, try and only do 1. A combination of that and uninstalling / reinstalling VT worked for me.


Re: how to use TSID on new project

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

There are a number of ways depending on how you want to go about it¡­

?

Quasi-automated way is to in Toolbox open the Network Device Tree view and the SIMPL Windows Program view and link the two (right click, link to, IIRC¡­) ?then right click either a specific item or heading and it¡¯s something like ¡°Assign Network IDs ¡° or ¡°Identify¡±

?

In the case of keypads, this will start flashing all of the LEDs on the keypad and pressing the keypad will link that ID (in the case of other devices, IIRC, the setup LED starts blinking and pressing the Setup button does the same thing) and rinse and repeat. Works really well if either you have wireless network coverage for your laptop or two people with two-way radios -- someone at the headend watching the Toolbox prompts and someone else walking around and pushing the right buttons.

?

I don¡¯t have that many projects where I have enough devices on Cresnet/Infinet, on the processor for this to make sense often but it is very handy (and I think kind of cool) for those projects where you do have a boatload of devices.

?

I remember the Infocomm when Toolbox was announced/released and the demo of this feature made an impression on me¡­ And it¡¯s still one of the few things that Toolbox does better than Viewport¡­ (g,d&r)

So, I have never really worked on larger lighting systems. ?Which is to be said that I only had to ID a few devices at a time. ?I know there has to be an easier way to walk into a project that my techs and electricians have just finished installing and ID all the keypads and modules. ?I tried searching the group and TB online and couldn't?find anything specific. ?I have a project with 8 CAEN-5x2s and about 100 Cameo KPs. ?How does TSID work?

PS I am asking, because TB chat couldn't tell me and had to hang up after 25mins on hold.
