language packs

Rio_S_ — Sat, 20 Sep 2014 08:28:30 GMT

I installed SDK to try speech recognition.

But I could not find any language packs except US English.

Where are other language packs?

SDK beta supports only

SDK beta only supports English...

I am disappointed about that.

I am disappointed about that.

I wish I could download Perceptual Computing SDK again.

Stay tuned Rio, things are

Stay tuned Rio, things are only going to be better :)

I would also use other languages.

Now, on the current SDK (Gold) there is an option for downloading other languages while installing it.

I haven't seen any other

I haven't seen any other languages while installing the SDK Gold.
If there are updates to the SDK, will we be notificated here in the forum?

It's definitely there, I

It's definitely there, I unchecked American English and selected British English. In sure it was one of the screens in the wizard.

I'm looking for German. I

I'm looking for German. I haven't found it.

It seems that they are using

It seems that they are using Nuance under the hood for the speech recognition.

You can see your currently installed language packs here:

RSSDK\contrib\Nuance\LanguagePacks

I am not sure if it would work, but maybe you could get the language pack from nuance and put them there.

German seems to be officially supported:

    enum LanguageType {
        LANGUAGE_US_ENGLISH     = PXC_UID('e','n','U','S'),        /** US English */
        LANGUAGE_GB_ENGLISH     = PXC_UID('e','n','G','B'),        /** British English */
        LANGUAGE_DE_GERMAN      = PXC_UID('d','e','D','E'),        /** German */
        LANGUAGE_US_SPANISH     = PXC_UID('e','s','U','S'),        /** US Spanish */
		LANGUAGE_LA_SPANISH     = PXC_UID('e','s','L','A'),        /** Latin American Spanish */
        LANGUAGE_FR_FRENCH      = PXC_UID('f','r','F','R'),        /** French */
        LANGUAGE_IT_ITALIAN     = PXC_UID('i','t','I','T'),        /** Italian */
        LANGUAGE_JP_JAPANESE    = PXC_UID('j','a','J','P'),        /** Japanese */
        LANGUAGE_CN_CHINESE     = PXC_UID('z','h','C','N'),        /** Simplified Chinese */
        LANGUAGE_BR_PORTUGUESE  = PXC_UID('p','t','B','R'),        /** Portuguese */
		LANGUAGE_RU_RUSSIAN     = PXC_UID('r','u','R','U'),        /** Russian */
    };

In the GOLD I see only en-US,

MarcoDP — Mon, 01 Dec 2014 18:11:00 GMT

In the GOLD I see only en-US, en-UK, es-LA and pt-BR.

No support for Italian, German, Chinese etc?

None of this language is present in ..\contrib\nuance forlder.

Just to confirm with a

Just to confirm with a screenshot that only a few languages are available:

Any news about this?

Any news about this?

I use Speech recognition in one of my challenge app, and actually I implement only English dictionary because the Italian is not present.

To be honest, I don't think

samontab — Thu, 15 Jan 2015 09:42:00 GMT

To be honest, I don't think this is one of the priorities of the dev team.
There are other things that are still not released that would make a larger impact than another language kit, like the 3D scanning for example so I reckon they are just busy doing those other things.

Maybe try installing nuance's language pack separately. and see if the SDK detects them. It may be an easy DIY fix.
I found these links for the language pack (with Italian) for the previous perceptual computing SDK. Maybe they work for this one too.
