Android Developer Needed – Real-Time Speech Detection Prototype (Audio Processing)
Description:
I am looking for an experienced Android developer to build a prototype app that performs real-time speech detection and triggers a sound when certain words are detected.
This is a simple prototype (MVP) for a larger product. Future work will be available if this project is successful.
The goal is a reliable working prototype, not a polished commercial app.
Core Features Required
The Android app must:
- Use the phone microphone to capture audio continuously
- Convert speech to text in near real time
- Detect words from a customizable list
- Play a beep sound when a word is detected
- Have a simple Start/Stop button
Technical Requirements
Preferred experience:
- Android development (Kotlin or Java)
- Audio processing
- Real-time speech recognition
Preferred speech engines:
- Whisper.cpp
- Vosk
- Google Speech API
Offline processing is preferred but not required for the prototype.
User Interface
Very simple interface:
Main Screen:
- Start Button
- Stop Button
- Status indicator ("Listening")
No fancy design needed.
Deliverables
Developer must provide:
- APK file for testing
- Full source code
- Instructions to run the app
Timeline
Expected completion:
3–4 weeks
Budget
Budget:
$1,000–$2,000 fixed price
Future development likely if prototype is successful.
