I am just starting to research the idea, so I am looking for suggestions.

Say I have a simple program: Input x and it outputs y.

Is there a setup where you can say "x" into a microphone and have it output y to the screen or speakers?

Edit: I am really hoping for some program that is already written for a device, maybe a headset or something. My real program basically is just building a query from the input and displaying or echoing the result. Trying to build a system for workers to find things in a warehouse without using their hands.

Yes

my advice is to write an android app and let the workers install it on their phones, then send the query to your database

very good suggestion with a great link!

I am going to use Window's build in speech recognition with wireless headsets. It was pretty cool researching this topic. Now all I need is a java library for audio output of texts.

interesting program
