Introduction

The project is basically a Boggle game using speech recognition. Boggle is a word-game consisting of 16 different letter dices which are shaken and randomly dropped onto a letter tray with a 4x4 grid. The task is to find as many words as possible in three minutes by combining the letters with their neighbour dices. Points are given depending of the length of the words. In a regular Boggle game, the players write down the words on a paper, but this project simplifies this part of the game by using speech recognition. This allows the player to speak directly to the game with a microphone and the words are immediately compared to the speech recognition software’s dictionary.
