I wanted to be able to control a ABB robot (Using IRC5 controller) by Voice command. I have found thsi article on this on Internet  
[http://robota.dem.uc.pt/voice\_web/robot\_by\_voice\_v6\_emerald.pdf](http://robota.dem.uc.pt/voice_web/robot_by_voice_v6_emerald.pdf)  
, but it wasnt very helpful. I am not using any PLC but controlling the machine through the Robot controller. I want to know if you get the Robot to interact with you and respond by running the routine that you ask it to run. Is there a way to program this in RAPID.
