Abstract

This paper intends to provide convenience to the disabled, losing the use of their limbs, through voice recognition technology. The voice recognition part of this system recognizes voice by DTW (Dynamic Time Warping) Which is most Widely used in Speaker dependent system. Specially, S/N rate was improved through Wiener filter in the pre-treatment phase while considering real environmental conditions; the result values of 12th order feature pattern per frame are extracted by DTW algorithm using LPC and Cepsturm in feature extraction process. Furthermore, miniaturization is pursued using TMS320C32, 71's the floating-point DSP, for the hardware part. Currently, 90% of hardware porting has been completed, but we can confirm that the recognition rate was 96% as a result of performing the DTW algorithm in PC.
