This project aims to create a voice activated servo motor switch using Python programming. The system will use speech recognition to take in voice commands and send signals to control a servo motor. Key aspects of the design include using APIs, system calls, and text-to-speech to enable two-way voice control of the servo motor.

Abstract
• This project is to create a Voice Activated Servo
Motor switch with the use of Python
programming language. This voice assistant
project will get us a kick start and move towards
the world of AI and ML(Machine Learning).
• Voice recognition technology is a software
program or hardware device that has the ability
to decode the human voice. Sometimes referred
to as voice-activated or speech recognition
software, this technology has become more and
more popular in recent years among everyday
users.
Literature survey

 A systematic review of voice assistant usability by Faruk Lawal Ibrahim Dutsinma et.al[1], states that
Voice assistants (VAs) are computer programs capable of understanding and responding to users using
synthetic voices. A report in indicates that 4.2 billion VAs were adopted and used in 2020 alone, with a
projected increase to 8.4 billion by 2024.Usability is a critical factor in the adoption of voice assistants.
Their study aimed to understand what is currently employed for measuring voice assistant usability, and
we identified the different independent variables, dependent variables, and the techniques used.
Furthermore, they also focused on using the ISO 9241-11 framework to measure the usability of voices
assistants. Their study classified five independent variable classes used for measuring the dependent
variables. These separate classes were categorized based on the similarities between the member groups.
 A Survey on Smart Assistant System using Speech Recognition by Mohd Abid Hundekari et.al[2] This
included the study of all aspects including technologies, trends in the market based on AI applications,
home appliances using voice recognition systems, the areas which are still under development in this
fields and to find out a way to provide an efficient and accurate system to the user so that the user can
control its device using speech instead of typing and looking at the screen. The strongest desire of man to
create computer resembling itself and having ability to interact with people can become a reality.
Literature survey

• Intelligent AI based voice assistant by Dr.S.Brindha et.al[3], describes a new emerging service for
the user. The Voice Assistance provides an intelligent computer secretarial service for any
professionals. The new service is based on convergence of internet and speech recognition
technology. This Voice assistant minimizes the interruption of the user, improves the utilization of
user’s time, and provides a single point of communication for all their messages,
contacts, schedule, and source of information. The paper proposes a decision structure as
well about Computer hardware. However, it is expected to become a standard feature for millions
of other users. It overcomes many of the drawbacks in the existing solutions. It is mainly built to
make a much more efficient Voice Assistant that they can be brought into much more practical day
to day uses. But the system has its own limitation. Though the efficiency is high the time
consumption for each task to complete maybe higher than the other Voice assistants and the
complexity of the algorithms and the concepts would make it very tough to tweak it if needed in
the future.
Objectives of the project:

• The main Objective of this project is to implement coding in the field


of mechanical aspect in order to drive the mechanical components
more effectively and efficiently.
• This project is used to activate Servo Motor using voice command
with the use of Python programming language.
• By making this voice activated Servo Motor , Our project can be
extended further, such as in making robotic arms , automatic door ,
mini plotter.
Method and Methodology:
This Voice activation system uses NLP(Natural Language Processing) to match
the user textbook or voice input with executable commands. When a user
asks the system to perform specific tasks , the natural language signals are
converted into practicable commands or digital data that can be automized by
software.
• 1) Speech Recognition-This system uses Google's online speech recognition
system to convert voice input into textbook. It allows a user to speak and
admit textbook from a microphone in exchange for speech input.

• 2) Python backend- The whole program is written in Python backend. The


Python backend functions to gain affair in Exchange for speech input
handed by the user through a speech recognition machine, relating
whether given commands are environment birth, API calls, and system
calls.

• 3) API Calls- Application Programming Interface is a software conciliator,


the work of API is he allows two operations to communicate with each
other. In short, an API is a runner that sends a user request to a provider
and returns a response to the user.
Method and Methodology:

• 4) System Calls- System calls take a programmatic


approach where a computer program requests services
from the running operating system kernel.B. Penetrating the
hard fragment, creating and running new processes, and
communicating with the process diary. It provides an
important interface between processes and the operating
system.

• 5) Google Text- to- Speech- Text-to- Speech is principally


used to convert speech from textbook handed by the user.
In other words, the TTS machine converts the written form
of the textbook into phonemic representations, also
converts the phonemic representations into waveforms to
induce tones. TTS has evolved significantly and comes with
a variety of languages offered by third- party providers.
VOICE ACTIVATED SERVO MOTOR SWITCH – FLOW CHART

This is used to wake up the AI , This takes in a voice query and


Like “hey siri” or “hey google”. transcribed that into text.

It enables the program to perform This helps to map the transcribed texts to some
specific task. skill , which returns with a response.
Model Analysis
1.) Speech recognition- Speech recognition
means that when humans are speaking, a
machine understands it. In our project we are
using Google Speech API in Python to make
software which is used to run machines on
command.

2.) gTTS- Google’s text-to-speech packages converts your audio questions


command to text. The response from the look-up function that you write for
fetching answer to the question or command is converted in an audio form by
gTTS. This package interface with Google Translate’s API.
3.) pyFirmata- pyfirmata and use it to establish a serial connection with the
circuit board, which is represented by the board object in line 2. We can also
configure the port by passing an argument to pyfirmata.

4.) Pyaudio- PyAudio provides Python bindings , the cross-platform audio


I/O library. With PyAudio, you can easily use Python to play and record
audio on a variety of platforms, such as GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows,
and Apple macOS.

5.) Servo Motor- A servo motor is a rotary actuator that allows for
precise control of angular position. It consists of a motor coupled
to a sensor for position feedback. It also requires a servo drive to
complete the system.

6.) Arduino- This is a open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-


use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light
on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an
output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online.
