IBM Watson Speech Services Just Got A Whole Lot Easier

UPDATE 12/22/15:  IBM Recently released a new iOS SDK for Watson that makes integration with Watson services even easier. You can read more about it here.


IBM_Watson_avatar_negIBM’s Watson Developer Cloud speech services just got a whole lot easier for mobile developers.  I myself just learned about these two, and can’t wait to integrate them into my own mobile applications.

The Watson Speech to Text and Text to Speech services are now available in both native iOS and Android SDKs, making it even easier to integrate language services into your apps.

These native APIs now include audio streaming back to the Watson Speech to Text service, for lower latency responses to spoken languages.

I can guarantee you that my “voice-drive iOS apps” demo will be updated soon, and I’ll be using this for all future language processing services.
