Simple Voice Recognition Swift? [closed]

Question

In my app when the user says a certain word or words the app will answer by reading out a sentence which is set in app. What is the simplest way of doing this?

I'm using the latest version of Xcode (Its for my WWDC 2015 scholarship app)

Answer 1

As of iOS 10 you can use Speech.framework:

import Speech

let recognizer = SFSpeechRecognizer()
let request = SFSpeechURLRecognitionRequest(url: audioFileURL)
recognizer?.recognitionTask(with: request, resultHandler: { (result, error) in
     print (result?.bestTranscription.formattedString)
})

You'll want to use SpeechKit. Ray has a nice tutorial here:

The SDK is developed by Nuance (the dragon people):
