Hello, I'd like to propose inclusion of QtSpeech in Qt 5.6.
Currently the module implements text to speech on Lin/Win/OS X/Android and there is a patch for iOS which needs to be re-done but works as proof of concept. My only concern is currently the license of speech-dispatcher which is at the moment used on Linux. They just changed the license everywhere to LGPL, but this change has not yet been released. That means for the time being the module would be LGPL only on Linux, we are planning to look into alternative synthesizers though. I have some great news in addition to this: Code-Q will help us to improve the module and work on adding speech recognition to it. Initially it will be based on pocket-sphinx and developed directly on codereview.qt-project.org in a branch in http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtspeech.git/ We hope that even the speech recognition part can be part of the 5.6 release, but that will have to be decided later. I'd appreciate code reviews from interested parties, especially if you have knowledge in the speech recognition area already. We want to provide a great API after all. Cheers, Frederik _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
