Description

This issue proposes adding voice input and output capabilities to the chatbot interface to enhance accessibility, user engagement, and hands-free interaction.

  • Allow users to speak to the chatbot using microphone input.
  • Convert speech to text using a reliable STT (Speech-to-Text) service.
  • Process the transcribed input through the existing chatbot logic.
  • Consider providing spoken responses using TTS (Text-to-Speech) synthesis.
  • Ensure smooth fallback to text-only interaction when needed.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or STT/TTS provider. Start by mapping the existing chatbot interface and text-processing flow, then determine the voice-input, spoken-response, and text-only fallback requirements; done means these paths are defined and integrated without removing the existing text interaction.
