Arduino Based Voice Controlled Robot

In this research paper, a system is being proposed, which focuses on the concept of how a robot can be controlled by the human voice. Voice control robot is just a practical example of controlling motions of a simple robot by giving daily used voice commands. In this system, an android app is used as a medium for the transmission of human commands to microcontroller. A controller can be interfaced with the Bluetooth module through the UART protocol. The speech is received by the android app and processed by the voice module. Voice is then converted to text. [1] The microcontroller will further process this text, which will take suitable action to regulate the robot. The objective is to design a robotic car whose basic movements such as moving forward, turning to left or right can be controlled by the human voice. The Hardware Development board used here is the ATmega Arduino board. The software part is done in Arduino IDE using Embedded C. Hardware is implemented, and software porting is done. Generally, recognition of human voice using some kind of module cost way too much. After performing an ample amount of studies on controlling robots, we came to the conclusion that yes, there exists a simple and very efficient way to manipulate robots through our voice. This is an ergonomic approach for the ease of robotic application. Such types of robots will provide great helping hands while performing multiple tasks. The result of our studies also shows that there still exists plenty of space for further research and development. [2]
