I am contacting you as I have been interested in Lojban for several weeks, thinking about it as a solution to develop controlling of computer by speech and I am looking for getting a better idea on the issues that I could meet in developing such application. I have been disappointed by current speech recognition system and I am doubting whether it could ever become really efficient. I am especially thinking about playing video games or using speech recognition for multitasking, few examples would be to be able to control my computer as follow: - Without showing me, open word, write blablabla... save on the desktop, quit word - When I say "go", do this, this and this. I understood that Lojban's design has been optimized for being well understandable by a machine and I would like to have a better idea on how much it could suit for this application. In addition, I would imagine that with the world of gamers becoming larger and larger on the internet, the application of lojban in gaming would be a good way to help the language to become more popular. At the beginning, full pre-made sentences could be available, allowing users to use it without needing to deeply learn the language, but it may also help to not require to develop a too much performant parsing tool at a first step. I am not an informatics guy unfortunately, but I hope this topic can catch your attention, please if possible could you provide me some contacts of people from your community most adapted to discuss about it ?
