Lichess Voice Recognition Beta

It should be possible to call the knight a horse :p

I've been DREAMING of playing chess puzzles while washing the dishes for a long time, please bring this to the mobile app

I created my own Voice Attack profile for this sort of thing. It uses lichess' feature of typing in our moves. My profile works, but it had too much confusion of English letters that all sound the same. For example, b, c, d, e, g -- it's all very similar. I ended up switching to the NATO phonetic alphabet. For example, I would say "Echo 4" for e4, and "Knight Charlie 3" for "Knight c3." This worked the best. It was definitely an interesting way to play chess. I felt more like a Ggneral commanding my troops, but it did get some strange reactions from people when I told them what I was doing. I'm glad voice recognition for chess is getting more attention.

Amazing! Thanks for creating this.

@thibault. I can't sign in. I've signed up, but i can't sign in even though others can.

didnt got paired from half an hour

Seems promotion can't be reversed with "undo"

How can I help in development of the voice recognition feature?
I tried to search for it's repository in github but I didn't find it

Tried it out some days ago. It worked well for me except for "a4" and "bishop c4". Both times many alternative moves were displayed, even though the moves were correctly transcribed.

It would be awesome if this voice recognition can be extended to a full blindfold mode, where moves of your opponent are announced and clock times every now and then (e.g. every 5 moves and when it gets low - "10 seconds left!).

whenever I say "d" it gets recognized as "b". Have to say "delta" for it to recognize it correctly.
The recognition of my voice sadly doesn't currently work very well. I would LOVE this feature!!
