calling the output of different program in LabVIEW

[Somil]

hi

Is it possible to call the output of a different program as an input in labVIEW?

What exactly i am trying to do is, Firstly convert the voice command to a text in Microsoft word and then calling that text in labVIEW for proceesing the code.

Is it possible?

Why don't you process the voice in LabVIEW itself? There are lot of options for this directly in LabVIEW? Why you need to copy to word in text format?

For a sample just see here

Hi Somil

I'm wondering as to why do you need to get the text in microsoft word first. Is that a requirement? If so, then probably you could just save that word file and read the text through the file.

I am wondering if you  have gone through

and

Probably it'll help you gain insight on voice processing using LabVIEW. Hope this helps.

hey Mathan,

But I'm curious why I have so much of white space in the end of my posts. I feel its a waste of space and I don't like it. I notice you don't have this problem. Do you have any idea?

I don't have signature. That maybe the reason. Just a guess.

I wanted to control a small toy car simply by my voice commands. So if i say "turn left" how this can be processed?

Not just this, i  should be able to control it by several other commands also!!! 

I was thinking it to be done like this. Firstly convert this speech to text and copy this command to labVIEW during runtime only. There it will be matched in an ENUM having preset commands and should process the code accordingly. 

If there is some other way of processing, kindly let me know.

Hi Somil,

If I am not getting you wrong, then you want speech to text conversion to be done on microsoft voice recognition software.Then take that text as input to LabVIEW as string and implement the algorithm according to the string received. This is possible if the software is activeX enabled. But i will still recommend you to the voice recognition in LabVIEW itself.

Hi

Thanks for the reply !!!

Yes, this is exactly the thing which i am trying to do.

In labVIEW, i can process the voice commands by saving there spectrum before hand and then processing the code according to the nearest match with the spectrum  on giving a voice command.

But what if i want to try voice to text conversion? Because, here i can use many commands by just matching the final strings.

What exactly has to be put in the ActiveX container?  .exe, .dll or something else of the main program. I tried putting word.exe in the container, but the problem with it is that the property node in the block diagram is not showing any properties.

do you actually read the replys from people trying to help you?

Hello
                   I am doing a project named Two way speech to speech translation( English to Malayalam) in Labview. I have some doubt in LABVIEW.This paper consists of three parts- Automatic Speech Recognition( Speech is converted to English text).In this part, I am using an algorithm called gaussian mixture model. 2nd part is  Machine Translation where the english text will be converted to malayalam text.Finally the 3rd part is the Text to Speech part where the malayalam text will be converted to audio output. I am using LABVIEW 2010 version.

I have completed the machine translation and the text to speech part so far. Now the 1st part is remaining. That i have implemented in MATLAB. I want to convert this m-file to labview. I have tried this using a MATH script. But the window is getting closed whenever i tried to run it.I have only 2 m-files in MATLAB.8 supporting files are there with this.I put all the supporting files and the 2 m-files all together in the matlab script. I dont know how to proceed further. I am stuck with this part..There is no error.Whenever i try to run the window is getting closed.can you please explain how to do this process. I will be very thankfull to you if so.
Thanking You,
Deepthi
