Windows 7 Custom Speech Recognition

[Abhijith]

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

Customizing voice commands in Windows 7 to launch specific actions, like opening a game, is a cool idea! While Windows 7 does have speech recognition capabilities, it doesn't natively support advanced customization for voice commands out of the box. However, you can achieve similar functionality with third-party tools or by creating custom scripts. To set up custom voice commands in Windows 7, you can use software like AutoHotkey or write scripts using Windows PowerShell to listen for specific phrases and then trigger actions like opening a game when recognized. Here's a general guide on how you can approach this:

1. Install AutoHotkey:
   • AutoHotkey is a scripting language that allows you to create macros and automate tasks on Windows.
   • Download and install AutoHotkey from its official website.
   []Create a Script:
   • Write a script in AutoHotkey that listens for your specified voice command ('NFS' in this case) and then launches your game.
   • An example script might look like this:

     autohotkey ;#Persistent SetTimer, CheckForNFS, 100 return CheckForNFS: SoundGet, mic, MICROPHONE, MICROPHONE IfInString, mic, NFS { Run, "C:\Path\To\Your\Game.exe" } return

   []Modify the Script:
   • Replace "C:\Path\To\Your\Game.exe" with the actual path to the executable file of your game.
   []Run the Script:
   • Save the script with a .ahk extension.
   • Double-click the script to run it with AutoHotkey.
   []Testing:
   • Test the script by saying 'NFS' to see if your game launches as expected. By following these steps, you can customize voice commands with AutoHotkey to launch specific actions on Windows 7. This method can provide you with a level of customization similar to what you experienced with Sensiva. Remember to adjust the script and commands according to your preferences and needs. Enjoy your personalized voice commands!
