The text to speech API will be based on google's proposal(http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xg-htmlspeech/2011Feb/att-0022/htmltts-draft.html).This API can be used for speech translation, turn by turn navigation, dialog systems etc. | The text to speech API will be based on google's proposal([http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xg-htmlspeech/2011Feb/att-0022/htmltts-draft.html]).This API can be used for speech translation, turn by turn navigation, dialog systems etc. | ||

== Tentative Schedule == | |||
=== First Half === | |||
(May 24th - June 7th) - Implementing the media capture API <br> | |||
(June 8th - June 14th) - Implementing the SpeechRequest API using google's speech reco server along with unit tests for the same. <br> | |||
(June 15th - June 30th) - Low activity due to exams. <br> | |||
(July 1st - July 8th) - Finish whatever coding is left of Speech Request <br> | |||
(July 8th - July 13th) - Tying up loose ends, documentation, code review. By the end of this period, i would like to have the Speech Input API working perfectly. <br> | |||
(July 13th - July 16th) - Mid-term evaluations <br> | |||
If time permits, I'll look at native speech engines and how they can be implemented. | |||
=== Second Half === | |||
(July 17th - July 24th) - Research and decide on possible speech synthesis engines<br> | |||
(July 25th - Aug 8th) - Work on the API implementation and unit tests. <br> | |||
(Aug 8th - Aug 15th) - Tying up loose ends, documentation, code review. <br> | |||
(Aug 16th - Aug 22nd) - Bug fixing and miscellaneous tasks. Committing code to mozilla repos and google code.<br> | |||
(Aug 23rd) - Firm pencil down date.<br> | |||
