NAO V4 - First demonstration of the new speech recognition
Channel: AxelVoitier

The new version of NAO, the V4, will feature a new speech recognition system (SRS).
It will now use Nuance (Acapella is still used for the text-to-speech).

This video shows the amazing progress this new SRS is compared to the previous system.
This one is faster to react, use less CPU and, as you can see, is much more efficient!

It will propose different modes: sentence recognition (it needs to hear the complete sentence) or word spotting (it can catch a word in any sentence).

Keep tuned because Aldebaran might release soon a better demonstration in English ;).

This was filmed during the 16-09-2011 beta-tester day at Aldebaran's HQ in Paris.
