As we started writing the speech recognition algorithm, we realized that although the Python SpeechRecognition library usually returns coherent sentences, which helps our NLP system to parse the input, the speed and accuracy of recognition is not very optimistic. We will test how to change certain metrics in the SpeechRecognition library for a more accurate output, and in the worst case, we can switch to other speech recognition algorithms compatible with Python.<\/span><\/p>\n<h6><b>Design Changes<\/b><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We may be able to use fewer infrared sensors. We conducted testing this week and found that the system was still able to detect relatively short human figures accurately with just one or two sensors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To accommodate inflexibilities in our current speech recognition and NLP modules, we decided that checkout can only be triggered by certain keywords (\u201ccheckout,\u201d \u201cfinish,\u201d and \u201cdone\u201d). We will also be taking item orders one by one, so a sample interaction would look like this:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kiosk: \u201cWelcome! Please order your first item!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Customer: \u201cOne hamburger, please.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kiosk: \u201cYou\u2019ve ordered one hamburger.
