Spellweaver- Words of Power<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Goal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n


If you\u2019ve ever used a VR Headset, you might\u2019ve run into the tedious task of inputting text. This experience is quite similar to navigating a keyboard with the remote of your smart-TV. A viable alternative offered by more and more web services is speech-to-text input. And that was our calling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We then asked ourselves which STT (speech-to-text)<\/strong> options are there, and how do we implement them into Unity? After all, what better way is there to introduce a feature than by gamifying it. And so we set the following goals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The game should make it easy for the user to test the performance<\/strong> of each API while seeing exactly what went wrong<\/strong>. It should also make it relatively easy for other developer to implement new API\u2019s from other providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once started, you have to choose one of the implemented STT-API\u2019s.
After that, you\u2019ll join the wondrous world of Spellweaver – Words of Power. There you\u2019ll find a\u00a0wand and a book<\/strong>\u00a0full of all kinds of Spells.
Above both the book and the stand with the wand you\u2019ll find two boards. One will show you the performance of your cast, while the other gives you two play options: sandbox or challenge. Both will spawn different kind of enemy types, but only one will give you a time limit and a final score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The following is a brief overview of the individual features of our game. They were developed with the goal to playfully try out speech-to-text input in VR and to test its performance. Despite the focus on STT, it was important to us to create a solid and meaningful gaming experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
