The CMUSphinx project is the leading speech recognition project in open source world. Since being released as open source code in 1999, it has provided a platform for building ASR applications. Nowadays, it's used in desktop control software, telephony platforms, intelligent houses and more than 20 other applications.

Over its long history, the project has been supported by CMU, SUN, Mitsubishi Electric, LIUM and many other organizations. Thousands of students use CMU Sphinx in their studies to learn state-of-the art in machine learning algorithms. CMUSphinx has been the base for more than 20 PhD theses.

With the growing interest in mobile applications CMU Sphinx started to support core mobile platforms, in particular Google Android. It's now a unique library to provide in-device ASR. Because of that it's attracting the attention of the mobile developers. CMU Sphinx is aiming at the end user which differentiates it from other toolkits. Our goal is to bring open source speech recognition from the universities to every computer, and this moment is getting closer every day.
