PySpeech 🎤

PySpeech is a Python script that uses the Vosk speech recognition toolkit to transcribe real-time audio from your microphone.

Description 📝

This script initializes a Vosk model and a PyAudio stream to capture audio from your microphone. It then uses the Vosk recognizer to transcribe the audio offline, and in real-time, printing both partial and final transcriptions to the console.

Key Notes 📌

• The script uses the Vosk speech recognition toolkit.
• It captures audio using PyAudio.
• Real-time transcription is printed to the console.
• Only tested on Windows, but it should work on Linux/Mac

Installation 🛠️

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Nenotriple/PySpeech.git
   cd PySpeech

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv
   venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install the required libraries:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage 🚀

1. Run the script:

   python PySpeech.py

2. Speak into your microphone:

   • The script will print Listening... and start transcribing your speech.
   • Partial transcriptions will be printed as Partial: ....
   • Final transcriptions will be printed as You said: ....

3. Stop the script:

   • Press Ctrl+C to stop the script. The script will handle the interrupt and close the audio stream gracefully. (Or close the terminal)

Additional Notes 🗒️

• Ensure your microphone is properly configured and accessible by PyAudio.
  • It should be the default input device.
• The script is configured to use a sample rate of 16000 Hz and a single audio channel.
