Who can tell me a basic voice recognition program?

Hello

Thanks to motion and espeak, I set up a small headless computer which recognizes when one enters the house (webcam > motion detection) and greets him (espeak).
(YES I am playing around..

Now the box asks if music should be played. In my webcam there is a microphone, the person would say a "YES" or "NO".

Is there a program that recognizes a basic "YES" or "NO". Or even better, is there a program for basic voice recognition?

Thanks for suggestions! (if anyone wants my configs, just ask)

I'd like to know this too, so I'm subscribing to this thread. By the way, I'm using festival for text-to-speech.

There is some software of this kind. If it comes to console tools:
CvoiceControl, but its not developed since 2002, so it may not work.
Other requires X window environment to run:
Xvoice
GnomeVoiceControl, designed for gnome, but it may work with other environments too.

If you will be successful you can wrote down a little how to and post it if you like.

Topic title is a bit obscure. Change it. Since I feel that I didn't answer your question:

I did some research tried out a couple things, and I kinda got it to work with voximp. It's a python script, which uses sphinxbase and pocketsphinx for voice recognition.

Heads Up. The voximp PKGBUILD doesn't have a md5sum, you have to generate it yourself. Oh and once it's installed you need to change the top line, it uses python2.

What are you using for the motion detection?
