Voice to Text Notetaker

Inspiration

changing the way students study

What it does

converts voice to formatted text, easy to view and study from

How I built it

used Microsoft speech api to convert to text then used backend development to parse string for key words and format in wix

Challenges I ran into

learning how to implement apis into wix, and receiving audio input through wix

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

*used wix creatively to solve real world problems and built on Microsoft azures apis *

What I learned

require 'redcarpet'
markdown = Redcarpet.new("I learnt that doing something unfamiliar is scary at first, but enables you to grow and learn so much in a short period of time! ")
puts markdown.to_html

What's next for Voice to Text Notetaker

convert sign language to formatted text, or for closer in the future have sign ups for different people

I worked on the backend, using javascript to access azure speech API, and manipulate the string. I also worked on the frontend development of the web page, which returned the data base for the output.

I worked on the websites design and graphics. I formatted the graphics so that website looked neat, tidy and appealing. The website was initially made on two different accounts and worked in the background to help patch up the two websites into one. This was my first time using wix and through this project I thoroughly learnt how to use wix and integrate code into it.

I worked on using Microsoft azure to implement a speech to text aspect that would allow users to talk and get back a written text. I also contributed by learning more about API's and editing the webpage for the frontend webpage.

I worked on building the voice recognition using Microsoft's Azure API as a basis and JavaScript to code it. Then I used wix.com's backend functions to pull in the JSON and format it. Front-end work was then needed to display the data.
