I would like to detect speech(OpenEars), record it (SaveThatWave), and then chop the recorded file up by word. I can manage the actual chopping up of sounds, but I’d need the timestamps for each detected word so that I knew where to cut. Do any of the politepix products provide that information?

Thank You

RapidEars has an API for receiving start times and end times from individual words:

- (void) rapidEarsDidDetectLiveSpeechAsWordArray:(NSArray *) words
scoreArray:		(NSArray *) 	scores
startTimeArray:		(NSArray *) 	startTimes
endTimeArray:		(NSArray *) 	endTimes 

- (void) rapidEarsDidDetectFinishedSpeechAsWordArray:(NSArray *) 	words
scoreArray:		(NSArray *) 	scores
startTimeArray:		(NSArray *) 	startTimes
endTimeArray:		(NSArray *) 	endTimes

You have to also set these setters to TRUE where you set up PocketsphinxController:

- (void) setReturnSegments:(BOOL)returnSegments; 
- (void) setReturnSegmentTimes:(BOOL)returnSegmentTimes;

I’ve never attempted to use these times to do a spot-edit of a SaveThatWave file, and my assumption is that they will be accurate but have some kind of offset since SaveThatWave almost certainly doesn’t use the same instant to start its timing as RapidEars correlates its timing to.
