Personal Accomplishment
I worked with Lisa to integrate the microphone and speech recognition modules with the NLP module. For now, the system is able to correctly find the desired microphone, listen for and transcribe speech, parse long sentences like “I’d like one burger and two fries and three veggie burgers” in the background (in another thread), and store the parsed items under a single local Order object.
The first line in the screenshot is transcribed from speech.
About Schedule
I am on track with the schedule.
Plans for Next Week
I will continue to work with Lisa to improve our microphone, speech recognition, and NLP modules, as the usability of our system depends heavily on these parts. In addition, I will start creating ways of handling errors. For example, what should the system do if it fails to parse the customer’s speech? How should the system react if it times out?
