Hello, all!
I've been continuing my ambitious project of building a radial hexapod with 18 servos. I was just wondering what has been commonly used for speech with Arduino projects.
Any ideas?
That's what i was going to use. Thank you for the prompt response.
Sparkfun just released a voice control module thing- if you want two-way speech!
I was going through my archive-o-crap (what I call a metric ton of CDs and DVDs I have burned over the years), migrating it to my fileserver (ultimately, I am looking for a couple of things and aggregating stuff, too, that is scattered right now); I found something that I forgot I had downloaded:
It was a phoneme speech synthesizer for a PIC written in PIC assembler (basically, I guess this is what the SC-01A is); I wonder how difficult it would be to port to an ATMega...
You can probably find it out on the net by doing a search for "PIC phoneme speech synthesizer". Hmm - here's one, but I don't think the same one I have:

Note that this won't produce anything quality like "Festival" or other higher-end heavy processing speech synthesizers; you're going to get, at best, the classic "robot voice" of a Speak-n-Spell nature...

Somebody needs to make this into a library...
