SpeechRecognizedEventArgs Class

Provides information for the Grammar.SpeechRecognized and SpeechRecognitionEngine.SpeechRecognized events.

'Usage
Dim instance As SpeechRecognizedEventArgs
[SerializableAttribute]
public class SpeechRecognizedEventArgs : RecognitionEventArgs

Remarks

An instance of SpeechRecognizedEventArgs is created when the SpeechRecognitionEngine object or the Grammar object raises a SpeechRecognized event during a recognition operation. You can initiate a recognition operation using the one of the Recognize() or RecognizeAsync() methods.

SpeechRecognized events are generated when one or more of the Alternates from a recognition operation have a high enough Confidence score to be accepted. To obtain detailed information about a recognized phrase, access the Result property in the handler for the event.

SpeechRecognizedEventArgs derives from RecognitionEventArgs.

Examples

The following example is part of a console application that creates a speech recognition grammar, constructs a Grammar object, and loads it into the SpeechRecognitionEngine to perform recognition. The grammar recognizes spoken input such as "I want to fly from Chicago to Miami". The example retrieves information from the recognition result using a handler for the SpeechRecognized event.
