Voice Activated Controls

[Dean Collins]

The answer is no, the neo processing power is too limited.

 

You need to start thinking bigger guys.

 

Why does the processing need to occur on the handset itself? What about
building a 'cloud' application where the application and processing
occurs with only a sip or gsm connection to the handset?

Check out http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Tellme for an idea on what
I am describing.

Perhaps it could be used as a form of input for typing, instead of the
virtual keyboard.  I would love to use it for sending texts or emails.

Depending on what you're looking for, it may be easier than that. My
last
three phones (All Nokia) have a speech command recognition which seems
more like limited wave-form matching. It requires that I record the 
command ("Call Brian", "Start music player", "Begin recording") then
when
I want to use that command, I hold down a button on the phone (Or on the
headset) until the phone makes a certain tone, and speak the command. 
The phone then "searches" for a few seconds, finds the match, and
activates the function.  It's VERY useful for when I'm driving and want
to call someone. I just hold down a button on my headset and give it the

command, all while keeping my eyes on the road.

My only major complaint is the (very) limited number of commands you can
record.  I find I have to think really hard about what I want a voice
command for because making a new one requires that I remove an existing 
one.

It wouldn't give you continuous speech-to-text capability, but I'm not
sure I want that.  People think I'm crazy enough as it is.
