and on later stages you could make something like relatime translator :) app/module that would intercept audio from A side, Voice2Text it and play it in B side chosen language :D On Thu, Sep 22, 2016 at 3:44 PM, Ashwin Rath <ashwinrath@gmail.com> wrote:

We faced a similar issue with TTS while developing a IVR based self care service. We ended up customizing mod_say for our requirement and we are currently working on an ASR on the same lines. Interfacing with cloud service would certainly be a good idea.

There are a bunch of cloud-based transcription services these days (Nuance, google, watson etc) that provide voice to text, and I am working on developing a freeswitch integration. It seems to me that they don’t fit quite precisely into the mod_asr framework as there is, for instance, no concept of a speech grammar. Just wondering from the freeswitch devs, whether they would recommend that this be implemented as an asr module anyways (i.e stub out and ignore grammar) or should it really be a new type of module. _________________________________________________________________________ Professional FreeSWITCH Consulting Services: consulting@freeswitch.org http://www.freeswitchsolutions.com

As far as TTS coud-based services, I have implemented for instance an integration to Nuance NCS, and that does not present the same problem — it fits nicely into the freeswitch asr_tts framework conceptual model. On the ASR side, though, these cloud-based services seem to be dispensing with sophisticated speech grammars in favor of keyword spotting or just simple transcription with nothing resembling a grammar.
