Abstract:
We live in an era of science and technology. Our everyday life is influenced in various
ways by technologies. Anywhere we look, we see the use of technology. With the
increase of modern technologies, we are going to a point where almost every work is
done by our tech devices. And the way of interactions has also been changed. Now
various types of interactions are being developed which makes using our devices easier
than ever. Such a type of interaction is speech recognitions. It is now very popular in
the current era because all the tech giants are focusing on speech recognition with their
“Personal assistants” like Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Microsoft Cortana. In
a speech recognition system, the user uses his/her voice to give command to a device.
But sadly, all of these works are being done in English or other popular languages. Our
mother tongue, Bengali was left out. So, our goal was to make a voice interactable
device that can be used offline for executing tasks. And all of these would be in Bengali.
So, we did some research on speech recognitions and made a recognizer that
understands commands given in Bengali. And with that, we made a home assistant
device so that we can bring out the maximum usability of the recognizer. Because when
you are at home, doing some other work, the voice recognizer would be very much
helpful. In the future, incorporation of AI with machine learning will extend the idea
further.
