Voice-Search-Wikipedia

A Python-based project that allows users to perform voice-activated searches on Wikipedia. Converts user voice input to text, searches Wikipedia, and provides the results via text or audio output.

Features

• Voice recognition for input.

• Fetches concise and accurate information from Wikipedia.

• Text-to-speech functionality to read the results aloud.

• Handles errors for invalid searches or no internet connection.

To install the below modules on your system, use the following :

1. pip install pyttsx3

   • A python package that supports common text to speech engines on Mac OS, Windows and Linux.

2. pip install SpeechRecognition

   • Library for performing speech recognition, with support for several engines and APIs, like CMU Sphinx, Microsoft Bing Voice Recognition, Google Cloud Speech API etc.

3. pip install wolframalpha

   • Python’s support library for WolframAlpha computational intelligence .

4. pip install wikipedia

   • Python’s library that makes it easy to access and parse data from Wikipedia.

Technologies Used

• Python: Core programming language.

• Libraries:

  • speech_recognition: For voice-to-text conversion.

  • wikipedia-api: To fetch content from Wikipedia.

  • pyttsx3 or gTTS: For text-to-speech conversion.

  • pyaudio (optional): Backend for audio input.

How It Works

1. The application listens to the user's voice input.

2. Converts the speech to text using speech_recognition.

3. Searches the corresponding topic on Wikipedia using wikipedia-api.

4. Outputs the result as text and/or reads it aloud using a text-to-speech library.
