i'm now doing a sound remote control. but im facing problem in converting the voice in to digital form. can any one tell me which IC that i can used to solved this problem.

if any one have done this project before.
can u please send to me the information

thanks a lot

:D
 
Yes, you have to use medium/high speed Analog-to-Digital converter having sampling frequency of atleast 40kHz for accurate sound reproduction of sonic signals (20Hz to 20KHz). Thats what you need.

For near real-time processing of audio signals use PIC or any other high speed microcontroller of your choice. For real-time processing go for Digital Signal Processor (DSP). You'll find lot of information on DSP's at www.ti.com .

This was all about conversion of audio into digital form with good quality.

Since you are doing a remote control project, you don't need very high quality sound for detection. I had found one such project. Let me search my disk, if I can find the link. It is based on motoral 68HCxx uC.
 
I found the document but not its link. It was downloaded from www.circuitcellar.com . The project name is "Low Cost Voice Recognition". Try searching the site.
 
analog to digital converter

I have a circuit for a analog to digital converter... I just completed the project for my design and manufacturing class so if u want u can use it …

The chip (IC) I used was a dual 4 bit binary counter (74LS393N) made by Texas Instruments. And one (741) Op-amp. E - Mail me for the schematics

For music applications 20-20k is considered the desired range. However, that is way beyond what is needed for an audio remote control -- the sound will not be played back. The spectral content of human voice at higher frequencies is very low. The bandwidth of your average telephone is only 3kHz. The important part of this project is to recognize the voice commands, not reproduce them.

I think plotoyee could get by without sampling at 40kHz, I would start at telephone sampling (6kHz) and go down from there. I think the actual algorithm is probably going to be more difficult than determining the proper sampling frequency.
 
useful link to search about audio recognization...

hey man u can use ADC chip...such as ADC0804...for futher information u can view ADC data sheet ...lot kind of ADC available by National Semiconductor , even for audio recognization. **broken link removed** please serch here.........thanks.

I think you haven't read my post completely. I've already mentioned that you don't need high sampling rate for detection. :)
 
project that i'm doing

i'm now doing a project about "control by using human voice"
do anyone done this before
 
Here you can find one for reference
