Sorry to be only getting back to you now. I went to town today to go to a new exhibition that is on in our national Gallery!
Re your post #11,
Yes I can say "click name" or if there is a button with a caption eg "Next Page" I can simply say "Next Page" to initiate that action.
My Nuance NaturallySpeaking needs significant resources so may not be the best option to use on my planned Intel Compute usb stick. It might be better for me to use Microsoft Windows 10 inbuilt voice recognition. As far as I can tell, it will also action button with a caption under it.
My Kobo model is the original Aura H2O not the model 2.
I've successfully installed KoboRoot.tgz before I actually read your post saying that it isn't necessary. It is providing the menu with a range of options.
I'll go ahead and installed the other files that you've created.
Just another thought that might be useful. I have Teamviewer on my PC which would enable you to logon directly to my PC and through it link directly to my kobo reader if that would be useful.
Eugene

The idea is to run a web server on the Kobo that delivers a page with buttons. "Pressing" a button on the page (in your web browser) will trigger a touch event.
You can see a similar project here. The point there was to make a mouse click in a webbrowser and by this trigger a touch at the corresonding position of the Kobo reader. For our current project, we would limit the possibilities to a number of pre-recorded events to make things easier, because we want to give our commands without having to look at the screen of the browser and without moving around the coursor. Before I try to find out about voice controlling a web page by myself, I wait for your answer, since you will already have the necessary informations. |
