I'm building an app that uses Voice Commands to perform certain functions. I got some codes working from here
private static final int SPEECH_REQUEST_CODE = 0;
// Create an intent that can start the Speech Recognizer activity
private void displaySpeechRecognizer() {
Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
// Start the activity, the intent will be populated with the speech text
startActivityForResult(intent, SPEECH_REQUEST_CODE);
}
// This callback is invoked when the Speech Recognizer returns.
// This is where you process the intent and extract the speech text from the intent.
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
if (requestCode == SPEECH_REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
List<String> results = data.getStringArrayListExtra(
RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_RESULTS);
String spokenText = results.get(0);
// Do something with spokenText
}
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
However, this approach needs to be activated through a button click. Is there a way to start the speech recognizer thru a voice command as well? Like Google Now where you can just say "Ok Google", then it will open up the Speech Recognizer activity and listen for commands?
Thanks.
