DESCRIPTION:&amp\;quot\;What does a weasel look like?&amp\;quot\; We are t
 aking a closer look at Android's Speech-To-Text (STT) and Text-To-Speech 
 (TTS) capabilities - and will develop and deploy three small apps\, each 
 a little more capable\, and finally walk through the steps of building a 
 voice controlled assistant.&#13\;&#10\;&#13\;&#10\;Android uses Google's 
 Speech-To-Text engine in the cloud but has Text-To-Speech capabilities ba
 ked right into Android since Android 2.0 (Donut)\, using SVOX Pico with s
 ix language packages (US and UK English\, German\, French\, Italian and S
 panish).&#13\;&#10\;&#13\;&#10\;While Speech Recognition\, Interpretation
 \, and Text-To-Speech Synthesizer are addressed by phone equipment- and O
 S makers\, the core problem of how to capture knowledge and make it acces
 sible to smart software agents is ignored and all service like SIRI or Go
 ogle Voice Actions remain closed\, i.e. not easily extendable with 3rd pa
 rty information/knowledge.
