If you've been following this blog for any length of time, you know how much I like the Kinect voice recognition and its potential. Every single time I use my Xbox One, it's just so natural to "Xbox Pause" or "Xbox Turn Off"...
Zubair Ahmed has just shared a simple sample, but simple in that...
Hi
I've been playing with Cortana today.
Pretty neat, I set up a playlist with 175 pieces of music, a mixture of styles from Pop, Rock, Folk, and Broadway, with everyone from Barbara Streisand to Steeleye Span, Bruce Springsteen, and Joan Baez.
Now all I have to do is say "Hey Cortana play my...
If Intel has its way, touch will be just one of the ways to control Windows 8 ultrabooks. The chipmaker is looking to add voice commands and Kinect-like gestures for what it calls “perceptual computing.” On Tuesday, Intel announced a partnership with Nuance Communications to put a locally hosted...
Following the foot steps of Windows Phone and Windows 8, the 2011 fall update for the Xbox 360 dashboard has been previewed again. Originally shown at E3, many were confused by the new system. Since then, Microsoft has worked fruitlessly on improving the navigation and other things on the new...

Hey people. I've been using windows speech recognition software since it was included in Windows Vista and now windows 7. To be completely honest I didn't really think that a free voice recognition system was gonna be that good because I've used many in the past and they weren't very accurate...

The speech recognition in Win 7 is awesome
I wonder if there is a way to use custom voice commands
I create a custom voice command and link it to an .exe file or something like that
If I say NFS, It must launch my game :p
