What is voice recognition?
Voice recognition is a computer technology that recognizes and converts speech signals into editable text or operational commands through analysis. It allows people to interact with computers by speaking without using a mouse, keyboard, or other input devices. Voice recognition technology has been widely used in applications such as voice assistants, smart homes, voice search, and voice recognition notebooks.
What is Gravity: offline language learning voice recognition sensor?
Gravity: offline speech recognition sensor is built around an offline voice recognition chip, which can be directly used without an internet connection. It comes with 121 built-in fixed command words and supports the addition of 17 custom command words. Meanwhile, this voice recognition module compatibility with multiple common controllers enables it to provide a flexible solution for makers and electronics enthusiasts in terms of voice interaction. It can be applied to any application that requires voice control or interaction, such as various smart home appliances, toys, lighting fixtures, and robotics projects, among others.
Self-Learning Function
The voice recognition module is equipped with a self-learning function and supports the addition of 17 custom command words. Any sound could be trained as a command, such as whistling, snapping, or even cat meows, which brings great flexibility to interactive audio projects.
For instance automatic pet feeder. When a cat emits a meow, the offline voice recognition module can recognize the meow and trigger the feeder to automatically provide food for the cat. This innovative design ensures that the owner can promptly meet the cat’s dietary needs. Moreover, the product is equipped with excellent noise resistance and long-distance recognition capabilities, allowing for precise identification of the cat’s meows even in noisy environments.

User-Friendly
The offline speech recognition sensor boasts a user-friendly design. It comes with 121 built-in fixed command words, eliminating the need for users to record their own voices.
For instance, in an intelligent window system, when it starts to rain or thunder, there’s no need for manual window operation. The offline voice recognition module can recognize the pre-set command word “close the window,” triggering the automatic closing of the window to cope with sudden weather changes.

Real-Time Voice Feedback
The language learning voice recognition module features a dual microphone design with better noise resistance and a longer recognition distance, making it relatively accurate and reliable even in noisy environments. It comes with a built-in speaker and an external speaker interface for real-time voice feedback of recognition results.
For instance, one can wake up a voice assistant using a wake-up word, and the assistant promptly responds and begins learning or utilizing command words. When learning or deleting command words, the voice assistant also provides immediate feedback on the success of the operation. This greatly enhances the user’s experience and convenience.

High Compatibility
The module boasts high compatibility, supporting both I2C and UART communication methods, while also being compatible with various 3.3V or 5V controllers.This provides a flexible solution for building smart home systems, robotics projects, and more.
