Design of Speech Based Ground Control Station for Controlling the Micro Air Vehicles

Abstract

This paper proposes to use speech commands for controlling a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV). The control commands for MAV are generated and transmitted through the Ground Control Station (GCS). Setting of values using keyboard and mouse can become cumbersome at the MAV mission site and therefore, speech is an effective alternative. In This paper open source Mission Planner GCS is integrated with the speech based control feature. The coding is done of Visual Studio using C# language.
