///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Overview:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
This is a speech recognition & osc parsing device.
 
It can be used as a stand alone to understand the setup and concepts behind python speech recognition and OSC data servers.
 
There is an OSC controller (exe or max external - cycling74.com for system agnostic usage) that allows you to run the python script in the background and control it as intended with the osc commands.
 
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Requrements:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
This is built using Python 3.6.1 (it should work on other python versions 3+ but compatibility cannot be gauranteed.
 
To use it youll need the:
 
pythonOSC library
argparse
speech_recongition
(pyaudio as we are using a microphone input)
 
and an active internet connection for the recognition
 
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Usage:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
To use the system, run the Speech&osc.py program. This will start a CMD window that displays some in editor feedback (eg, listening setup etc)
 
Youll need to use the OSC controller, or send the "/startListening 1" command to be able to launch the thread that listens for audio!
