I was daydreaming during this morning’s meeting about a cool application I’d like to have. It would work with a soundcard and microphone to react to sounds it hears.
Lots of stuff around the house offer audible feedback for one thing or another. Phones and doorbells ring, smoke alarms sound, oven timers beep. (Glass breaks and doors get forced open, etc). You name it. Wouldn’t it be great for your computer to recognize these sounds and react appropriately to them?
Seems like I’ve seen some apps that do some of this, but nothing exactly doing what I want. If anyone has seen similar apps, drop me a line!
