Is this a project you would like to tackle as a community and is this a project you would like to see become more serious?!  As a community would you like me to build a discussion or group around this project?! Let me know what you think.

    P.S.  Do you think we could achieve background noise cancellation like xbox 360 headsets and other video game headsets have achieved?  I'm trying to dig up some information on how headset companies have been adding background noise cancellation.

    @Joshua, this is just my opinion, it would be very interesting to discuss and see where it leads too. Personally, I think there is enough danger and negative publicity involved with these DIY drones right now to bring something like to to reality.

  • Joshua Johnson March 18, 2013 at 12:28pm

    @Richie,  Do you think building something that functions really well and is easy to set up is needed for our community? If I created a group or discussion would you be interested in joining and helping out? :)

  • Copter Richie March 18, 2013 at 12:27pm

    P.S. One of the MAJOR Problems with VR in my opinion is background noise. It does not know the difference.

  • Copter Richie March 18, 2013 at 12:19pm

    @Joshua, not in connection with the Arduino or a FC but other applications yes. Hard part is training it. :)

  • Joshua Johnson March 18, 2013 at 11:56am

    @Richie,  have you used any of the different voice recongnition hardware/software?

    @Sebastian,  do you know anyone who owns the EasyVR Shield?

  • Copter Richie March 18, 2013 at 11:22am

    No, I understood the point but I failed to make my point. There are many ways of adding voice recognition, the Android is just one way.

  • Sebastian Gralla March 18, 2013 at 11:14am

    Richie: that's not the point here, there are arduino shields that can do voice recognition:

    Androids have voice recognition.

  • Joshua Johnson March 17, 2013 at 10:21pm

    I just started making videos with it but I have one video linked above with it taking off voice only.  I can't 100% figure out exactly how it works so I'm asking the Diydrones.com community if they would like to help me Mark.  So we can build a product that will work for the APM 2.5!
