Tacspeak has been designed specifically for recognising speech commands while playing games, particularly system resource and FPS hungry games!

Fast - typically on the order of 10-50ms, from detected speech end (VAD) to action.

Lightweight - it runs on CPU, with ~2GB RAM.

Modular - you can build your own set of voice commands for additional games, or modify existing ones.

Open source - you can modify any part of Tacspeak for yourself, and/or contribute back to the project and help build it as part of the community.

Tacspeak is built atop the excellent Dragonfly speech recognition framework for Python.

  • Note: Tacspeak uses a modified version of Dragonfly located at jwebmeister/dragonfly.
  • Please see the Dragonfly docs for information on building grammars and rules (i.e. voice commands).
  • Please also see the existing examples of Tacspeak grammar modules.

Also built atop the excellent Kaldi Active Grammar, which provides the Kaldi (also excellent) engine backend and model for Dragonfly.
