I've just spent the morning writing a C# program that pops up a message when I say hello. It's the most basic thing when I look at it now but as I was writing it you'd swear I was breaking technological boundaries!

How did you do this? I've had a lot of problems with voice recognition. One of them was that the program couldn't find voice input. StackOverflow didn't know the answer (yeah, that's possible) so I stopped developing my app.

I'll try and send you over what I've got tomorrow. I ended up watching a YouTube video that went through the process. I used a Kinect v2 for my uni project and it was so much easier!

@JonRocke That'd be great! Sounds awesome!

I would like to see it on a github repo. I am also curious.

Voice recognition as in take raw data from microphone and analyze it or voice recognition as in sending data to google voice recognition API or voice recognition as in using Windows in-built recognition?

No it's using Microsoft Speech...
This is the code in it's entirety
