Introduction

In this article, we will be integrating Huawei ML kit in Flutter StoryApp to listen stories using ML kit Text To Speech (TTS). ML Kit provides diversified leading machine learning capabilities that are easy to use, helping you to develop various AI apps. ML Kit allows your apps to easily leverage Huawei's long-term proven expertise in machine learning to support diverse artificial intelligence (AI) applications throughout a wide range of industries.

In this flutter sample application, we are using Language/Voice-related services, services are as follows.

Real-time translation: Translates text from the source language into the target language through the server on the cloud.

On-device translation: Translates text from the source language into the target language with the support of an on-device model, even when no Internet service is available.

Real-time language detection: Detects the language of text online. Both single-language text and multi-language text are supported.

On-device language detection: Detects the language of text without Internet connection. Both single-language text and multi-language text are supported.

Automatic speech recognition: Converts speech (no longer than 60 seconds) into text in real time.

Automatic speech recognition: Converts speech (no longer than 60 seconds) into text in real time.

Text to speech: Converts text information into audio output online in real time. Rich timbres, and volume and speed options are supported to produce more natural sounds.

On-device text to speech: Converts text information into speech with the support of an on-device model, even when there is no Internet connection.

Audio file transcription: Converts an audio file (no longer than 5 hours) into text. The generated text contains punctuation and timestamps. Currently, the service supports Chinese and English.

Real-time transcription: Converts speech (no longer than 5 hours) into text in real time. The generated text contains punctuation and timestamps.

Sound detection: Detects sound events in online (real-time recording) mode. The detected sound events can help you perform subsequent actions.

Android phone (with the USB cable), which is used for debugging.

Software Requirements

Java JDK 1.7 or later.

Android studio software or Visual Studio or Code installed.

HMS Core (APK) 4.X or later.

Integration process

Step 1: Create Flutter project.

Step 2: Add the App level gradle dependencies.

Choose inside project Android > app > build.gradle.

[/B]
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

apply plugin: 'com.huawei.agconnect'
[B]

Root level gradle dependencies

[/B]
maven {url 'https://developer.huawei.com/repo/'}
classpath 'com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.4.1.300'

[B]

Step 3: Add the below permissions in Android Manifest file.

[/B]
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />

Step 4: Download flutter plugins

Step 5: Add downloaded file into parent directory of the project. Declare plugin path in pubspec.yaml file under dependencies. Add path location for asset image.

Tricks and Tips

Make sure that downloaded plugin is unzipped in parent directory of project.

Makes sure that agconnect-services.json file added.

Make sure dependencies are added yaml file.

Run flutter pug get after adding dependencies.

Make sure that service is enabled in agc.

Makes sure images are defined in yaml file.

Make sure that permissions are added in Manifest file.

Conclusion

In this article, we have learnt how to integrate Huawei ML kit Text to Speech in Flutter StoryApp. It supports maximum of 500 character for one request to convert Text to Speech. Once Account kit integrated, users can login quickly and conveniently sign in to apps with their Huawei IDs after granting initial access permission. Banner and Splash Ads helps you to monetize your StoryApp.

Thank you so much for reading, and also I would like to ‘thanks author for write-ups’. I hope this article helps you to understand the integration of Huawei ML Kit, Banner and Splash Ads in flutter StoryApp.
