Adding Voice Recognition to a Camera and
Intercom System
Designer: Samuel Bowden
Abstract
The purpose of the project is to aid a woman with
quadriplegia by enhancing the security of her home and her
ability to communicate with visitors through voice activated
camera and intercom systems. One VR Stamp module was
programmed to read voice commands and issue a signal to a
BASIC Stamp which sends the corresponding signal to an X10
transceiver via an RF transmitter. The system consists
of three cameras which send wireless video signals to a
receiver connected to a television. A second VR Stamp
was programmed to activate switches on a wireless intercom.
This voice activated intercom has the ability to communicate
with 2 additional intercoms and a doorbell station.
