Microsoft Speech API SDK
Speech API software developers kit (sapi sdk) contains documents, examples, header files, and library files. You can use this to write applications for speech recognition and sound synthesis.Program. In addition, you can use the sapi sdk to create a speech recognition and sound synthesis engine for other programs.
Generally, the SAPI version is determined by the platform that loads it. SAPI 5.1 and Microsoft's SAM (Personal Name) speech synthesis engine (TTS) are included in Windows XP. The originally released Windows XP does not contain a speech recognition engine. The SAPI is also loaded by Office 2003. Office 2003 also includes SAPI and TTS from Lernout & Hauspie and is called LH Michael and LH Michelle. Note that some manufacturers will include their own SRS (Speech Recognition) and TTS products. For example, my laptop contains the speech recognition and TTS engine provided by Toshiba.
In Windows Vista, The SAPI version installed is 5.3. We have replaced Microsoft Sam with a new Microsoft Anna voice with the next-generation technology. We have also made many improvements in the speech recognition engine (currently version 8.0) and included them in all versions of Windows Vista.
For This SDK, you can download the SAPI 5.1 SDK to create a program or engine that can run on XP or 2003. These programs or engines should use SAPI 5.3 on Vista or later Windows OS for backward compatibility. The SAPI 5.1 SDK is an independent package separated from other Microsoft sdks.
We have improved SAPI 5.3 to the main windows SDK (sometimes called the Platform SDK ). You can use this Windows SDK to create Windows Vista, Windows XP, and applications under Windows Server 2003. The version of your target operating system is determined during compilation, which plays an important role in preventing only later versions from being available.

In addition, there is our new managed Speech API's, code (xroy note: the original article is codenamed) speechfx, And the managed Speech API is Microsoft. net Framework 3.0. This new system provides speech recognition and synthesis hosting classes. This enables managedCode(For example, C #, Visual Basic. Net) it is easier to compile a speech program.
The managed Speech API documentation is included in the Windows SDK. programs using. NET Framework 3.0 can run in Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. Note that for XP and 2003, you must resend. NET Framework 3.0 and your program. This framework is already included in Vista.
