"Using audio commands via a smart robot to control distant peripherals."
That's Perfect!!! Thanks a lottttt!!!
and Thanks to u too, Radioron..
and for ur query,zipdogso,
"Would it not be simpler to just turn the the unit on while your standing there with the bot in your hand ?"
Well, no, the bot will be placed near the unit from the start itself.. Consider it like a lift-man. he's always in the lift right.. and we tell him which floor we would like to go..
My idea is, any user might come walking by, call the bot, tell it the instruction and walk away.. the bot will then go back to its original place and operate the unit..
This process can now be repeated.
